Confident Public Speaking and Presentation Skills training and coaching in Brighton, Sussex and beyond, with Philippa Hammond
Five easy tips for those who have to stand up and speak at short notice:
1 – Think audience – what do these people need from you right now? What do you want them to take away / to do as a result of having heard you?
2 – Think aim and objectives – what are you intending to achieve here? Do you want to inform, inspire, entertain them? What will they be able to do differently after you speak?
3 – Think body language – stand up straight, make eye contact round the room and smile.
4 – Think voice – Breathe out, then breathe in half way from your diaphragm, not your chest, and speak a little more slowly than nerves may want you to.
5 – And always … Keep it short and simple!
