Public speaking is a dreadful thing to do for an inexperienced one. Oftentimes, you are put into a shameful situation especially when you are not ready to face the crowd. Now, worry no more. Here are some of the few tips:
1. Be confident
Speak like nobody is around. Focus on the idea you are going to deliver. Accept the fact that no matter how good speaker you are still there are some listeners whom you can never please. Do not mind them. Instead consider it as a challenge to strive more for your future speaking engagements.
2. Be natural
As much as possible feel what your audience feel so that you can win their sympathy. Be positive. You don't need to be superman who can make promises of changing the situation in an instant. But what matters most is that there is a driving force that would make your audience to move.
3. Be direct to the point
Always consider the situation that your audience will easily get annoyed/bored with a very long speech yet they can get nothing from it. As much as possible make it simple, precise and to the point. A good speech therefore does not require a long period of time.
4. Sharpen the saw
As often quoted "constant practice makes ones work perfect". Indeed it is. So, I suggest do not face the crowd without even have an ounce of practice or else, you'll be in big trouble.
So, to become not just a good but effective speaker you need not just to ponder but apply these simple yet powerful tips.
