|
Okay, just get up on that podium.
|
|
|
Alright! I am here. That was easy. Now I just need a...
|
|
|
Oh my gosh! How many people are in the audience? A hundred?
|
|
|
A thousand ? Don't count. Ok. I can do this and focus on my notes.
|
|
|
What do I have written down again? Uh.. Hello, my...
|
|
|
Okay, if this sounds like your worst nightmare, you're not alone.
|
|
|
Actually, you are one of the estimated seventy percent of the
|
|
|
population that has an intense fear of public speaking.
|
|
|
And that's okay, because on today's Wellcast, we've got our Triple-P method
|
|
|
that will get you through and get you calm during that next oral report,
|
|
|
and keep your breakfast where it belongs, you're ready?
|
|
|
Many polls list public speaking as the most commonly reported phobia among Americans.
|
|
|
It's called Glossophobia, meaning literally, fear of the tongue.
|
|
|
A study by Texas Christian University
|
|
|
tested forty eight women and forty eight men enrolled in a public speaking class
|
|
|
and found that those who exhibited high-trait anxiety
|
|
|
had the most physical symptoms of distress when speaking publicly.
|
|
|
So, what if you're the kind of person whom any bit of social acrobatics
|
|
|
is tantamount to entering a lions den?
|
|
|
Hey, calm down! Ok, I'm just kidding, but seriously, calm down, alright?
|
|
|
We've got our Triple-P method
|
|
|
that'll get you through that next public speaking gig.
|
|
|
Pause and print this wellcast worksheet.
|
|
|
Step 1: Prepare! Prepare! Prepare!
|
|
|
We said it three times because it's that important.
|
|
|
There are two things that are going to be prepared.
|
|
|
Number one, knowing your subject backwards and forwards!
|
|
|
Two, knowing exactly how you gonna present it step-by-step.
|
|
|
In your Wellcast worksheet,
|
|
|
write down the major points that you want to get across to the audience.
|
|
|
Get the ideas out of your head and onto the paper.
|
|
|
And the next column to the right.
|
|
|
Start ordering these points in a logical manner,
|
|
|
arguing your points to the audience,
|
|
|
and wanting them over as like a boxing match.
|
|
|
First, start with some fancy footwork.
|
|
|
A fact or an anecdote that will hook the audience in
|
|
|
and get them to pay attention to you.
|
|
|
Then, throw a couple of swings supporting evidence for your arguments stance personal stories,
|
|
|
something that will start to convince the audience that you're taking control.
|
|
|
And finally the knockout. A landing blow, a statement that's memorable,
|
|
|
convincing, and sums up your speeches position.
|
|
|
Alright, step 2: posture and physicality a key.
|
|
|
Part of keeping your anxiety at bay.
|
|
|
What giving a speech is knowing what to do with your body.
|
|
|
Before your speech, avoid large meals and dairy products which will make you feel like you need to clear your throat incessantly.
|
|
|
Bring a bottle of water on stage if you're allowed.
|
|
|
Don't be afraid to take sips throughout your speech, it will keep your voice natural.
|
|
|
And it gives you a moment to pause and regain your composure if needed.
|
|
|
Stand naturally, not too stiff or slumped.
|
|
|
Good posture can help you breath and speak easier.
|
|
|
And it will let your audience know that you're calm and in control.
|
|
|
Step 3: Pander to your audience.
|
|
|
The best public speakers know how to work the room.
|
|
|
Don't be completely serious analyzing the occasion calls for it.
|
|
|
Don't read entirely off the cards. Keep a natural cadence and pace.
|
|
|
Throw a joke or aside in. It'll draw in a laugh.
|
|
|
If there's a silence, then turn that into a joke. Stay natural, self effacing,
|
|
|
and the audience will be on your side! Let's recap!
|
|
|
You rather face a poisonous reptiles than public speak, huh?
|
|
|
Well, follow the Wellcast tripple-P checklist.
|
|
|
Prepare extensively for your speech. Know your content backwards and forwards,
|
|
|
and figure out the absolute best way to present it and win over your audience.
|
|
|
Watch your posture and physicality. This includes everything
|
|
|
from standing naturally to breathing from your diaphragm.
|
|
|
And pander to your audience. Keep them in the palm of your hand, and with easy demeanour, natural cadence, and of course, jokes.
