Top Tips for Public Speaking
Posted by admin on April 29, 2008 in Business :: Presentation
One of the best tips for public speaking I can offer is to make use of as many presentation aids as you can - this helps to keep your audience lively and active, and paying attention to you.
Take note however that they are only tools for your presentation. They must not be used as your substitute or as an alternate speaker or presenter.
There are different kinds of visual aids you can use. Advancements in computer technology allow us to make more effective visual aids such as PowerPoint presentations. They combine texts with images, videos, sound clips, animation and other audio-visual effects.
Establish rapport with your audience – It is important to make your audience feel like you are talking to them sincerely. You can achieve this by maintaining eye contact, listening to them intently when they comment or ask questions, and responding to their reactions.
If you know of a good public speaker, it would be best to get some presentation tips directly from that person and to know about his public speaking experiences. Nothing beats words of a seasoned speaker who’s been there and done that.
