Almost everyone has that sense of fear with public speaking and what better way to address it than to know several tips to overcome the fear of public speaking. Before you start working on your talk or presentation, it's essential that you really understand what you want to say, who you want to tell and why they might want to listen. To do this, ask yourself: Who? What? How? When? Where? Why? Who are you speaking to? What are their interests, beliefs and values? What do they share in common with others; how are they unique? What message do you wish to convey? One way of answering this question is to ask yourself about the ‘success criteria’. How do you know if and when you have successfully communicated what you have in mind? How can you best put across your message? Language is most important here, as are non verbal cues such as body language and expressions. Choose your words and non verbal cues while keeping your audience in mind. Plan a beginning, middle and end. If time and place allow, consider and prepare audio-visual aids. When? Timing is important here. Develop a sense of timing, so that your contributions are seen and heard as relevant to the issue or matter at hand. There is a time to speak and a time to be silent. Where? What is the physical context of the communication in mind? You may have time to visit the venue, for example, and rearrange the furniture. Check for availability and visibility if you are using audio or visual aids. Why? In order to convert hearers into listeners, you need to know why they should listen to you – and tell them if necessary. Here are some tips that may seem obvious, but once completed, will really put your mind at ease, trust me. First, introductions should be as brief as possible. Second, materials in introductions should be included only if they contribute to one of the three purposes of the introduction. Third, the more original and the more timely it is, the more effective the introduction will be. Fourth, all introductions should be planned, yet flexible enough to incorporate events that happen as late as your own introduction. In order to give the audience a sense of finality or completeness, the conclusion should be adequately designed to balance Preparation of the Introduction and the Conclusion. After the body of the speech is complete, and only then, is it possible to determine an appropriate introduction and conclusion. The suggested conclusions will, to a very great extent, summarize your content. But, your central idea will be even clearer if you also review for your audience the main parts of your speech. If you are not organized, you cannot make such a summary. Coming prepared to a talk or a speech helps boost self –confidence and establishes your mastery of the things you want to discuss and share. Lastly, prepare your tools and make use of necessary materials that may assist in maing the presentation, it could be gestures, graphic representations or such, but just make sure that it does not take the limelight away from you.
