Are you a nervous public speaker and you want to feel more confident when presenting or do you want to polish up on your public speaking skills and become a masterful communicator?

You may on the other hand, feel fairly comfortable with talking to groups and you just want to take it to another level; to improve your public speaking skills and understand more about how to structure a presentation, or have the ability to communicate with others in an influential way that will make a powerful impact; be it to get more leads and win more business, motivate teams, land a new job or inspire others. Whatever your reasons, you’re in the right place!

How do you feel at the thought of standing up and presenting to a group of people; be it during a presentation, a networking event, meeting, workshop, conference or an interview?

nervous?
a sense of dread?
embarrassment?

Consider the physical responses: a raised heartbeat, sweaty palms, flushed cheeks, shallow breathing, shaking, sweating. Doesn’t feel good does it?

You are not alone. For some this can feel mildly uncomfortable. For others, it can be debilitating.

Maybe you:

cringe at the thought of having to walk into a room full of strangers and strike up conversations
feel anxious waiting for your turn to speak at a business networking event or work meeting
feel nervous when delivering a work presentation worried that your mind will go blank
feel dread at having to pitch your services worrying about how you may come across
feel concerned about running a workshop and how it will be received
feel fearful at the thought of having a meeting with your boss
and the list goes on…!

It’s a fear of… what may go wrong and then playing that story in your mind.

Whether you are consciously aware of the thoughts you are having, you are still having that horrible nervous, anxious feeling in the pit of your stomach.

I know how it is. I have been there myself. I used to dread doing presentations, chairing meetings, or standing up and speaking in front of any audiences from the time I was a child.

I found it nerve-racking. But when I was employed in my previous career in the world of TV production, working across some of the main terrestrial TV broadcasters (together with some very high profile TV personalities) was this; what made TV audiences tune in (and tune out!).

When I left the TV world behind, I worked on myself to overcome those limiting beliefs and fears around public speaking. I also trained as a presenter as part of that process and cultivated a successful career in the area of personal and professional development. A chunk of the work I do is to help business people deliver dynamic and engaging presentations to large or smaller audiences to create impactful results. And guess what? Now I LOVE IT!

So here’s the thing.

You are presenting yourself whether you are speaking to one person or to an audience of 200. A fear of public speaking starts in your mind then it influences your emotions and physiology:

thoughts (i.e. “what if I forget what to say?”)
emotional response (“i.e. nervousness”)
physical response (raised heartbeat, dry mouth, sweaty palms, flushed face, shaking)

Remember that your body language, demeanour, facial expressions, voice tone and words spoken influences how you carry and present yourself to others

Yes, Let’s Have a Conversation!

Remember that your body language is an outward reflection of your internal state!
