Mark Twain says, "There are two types of speakers in the world, those who are nervous, and liars."
This simple guide helps you become more effective in your public speaking endeavors and your ability to instantly and effectively answer questions.
5. You Should Acknowledge It’s
a Conversation
•There is no right and wrong
in a conversation!
6. Start with a question
• Interaction is useful; it helps calm
you down (conversation mode)
and it keeps the audience in their
attention span
7. Don’t Physically or Mentally Alienate
Yourself From Your Audience:
• Instead of listing steps as step1,
step2, step3….
You could instead start by saying, “first
we do this, then we do that….”
• Don’t use sophisticated words if they
weren’t necessary; remember it’s a
conversation!
8. Be Present Oriented
Not Future Oriented/
Worried of Outcome
• To help you, listen to songs, take a walk, count
backwards, or say tongue twisters right before
you go on stage.
12. Respond With A Structure
•Problem – Solution –
Benefit
•What? – So What? - Now
What?
13. If The Question Is Hostile, Paraphrase
IT!
• This allows you to rephrase the
question and have enough time
to respond.
• Paraphrasing is like the Swiss
Army knife of communication.
14. • “Words are, of course, the most
powerful drug used by mankind” –
Rudyard Kipling
