While speaking in public, you cannot assume that people are going to understand what you are talking about. You have to work at getting attention and work hard to keep it. Public speaking is a performance, and it takes work to get real results.<\/p>\n

Time your speech. This gives you the opportunity to make edits so you can fit within your allotted speaking time. If you find that your speech is very short, consider beefing it up with a little research. Pace your speech so that the audience can keep up with what you are saying.<\/p>\n

When you speak in public, preparation is critical. Understand exactly what you are planning to say. Support your statements with facts, when necessary. Write down the things you plan on saying. Try practicing this speech until you know it by heart. You will be much more confident when giving your speech if you are properly prepared.<\/p>\n

Know your material as best you can. It’s good to have figures, facts, and stories about your topic that you can bring up with ease. Gauge how your audience is reacting to your speech and use these things in a good way. Draw on your general knowledge in the Q&A session following your presentation.<\/p>\n

After you have memorized the broad strokes of your speech, practice often. Tweak your speech if you need to. Also master breathing and pace. Make sure to allow a little extra time for applause during your speech. Use the equipment you are going to use for the speech to practice if you can.<\/p>\n

Know your audience. If you can, try to learn who will be listening to you. Greet them at the door and ask their names. The crowd will feel more friendly if you have a level of familiarity with at least some of the people.<\/p>\n

Keep moving if you suddenly realize you skipped something in your outline. If you stop abruptly to backtrack to the missing section, the whole speech might be compromised. In general, the audience is not going to know that you missed a small portion of your prepared speech.<\/p>\n

If public speaking makes you anxious, practice doing deep breathing. Taking a few deep breaths and exhaling completely before you begin your speech will help you get your nerves under control. Breath using four-count nasal inhales and five-count mouth exhales. Do that five times total, and you’ll be amazed at how you feel!<\/p>\n

Dress nicely, even if you are going to be at an event that is casual. Dressing up a little will help to give you confidence. Wear a tie if you are a man to get the attention of the audience focused on your face.<\/p>\n

Work on your remarks every day. Doing so will increase the confidence you have, as you will be very familiar with the material. Even if you’ve memorized your speech, bring some notes along with you on stage. This helps if you forget something since you can peek down at them for a refresher.<\/p>\n

You can become a powerful public speaker. It just takes a bit of knowledge and practice for this to happen. Use these techniques before you deliver your speech. Be sure to make use of them. You should slowly start to feel more confident. It will be of great benefit to you in life.<\/p>\n
