Today, I watched a video by Mr. Bredon where he discussed 5 tips to improve public speaking tips and how to get rid of fear. He discussed the following tips-
Mastery of Silence- Many top speakers make their presentation better instead of seeing them as a sign of Burden. Instead of speaking continuously try to add pauses in your speech.
Mastery of Ums & Ahs – While giving the speech replace your Ums and Ahs with Silences. So, whenever you are stuck while speaking take a short pause and then speak.
Mastery of Audience- The quality of your presentation is always determined by how much your audience is attracted towards your presentation. Therefore, it is very important to make audience happy and feel attracted towards you. This can be done by identifying what do you want to convey, who your audience is, what do they want from you and how can you do that.
Mastery of Eye Contact- Maintaining eye contact with the audience is very important. You should try to either look at the audience or your slides. Even the size of audience is very huge make sure that you look towards every part of the audience atleast one time.
Mastery of Postures- While giving your presentation always ”Stick your feet together” to avoid problems like leg tick and legs being too far from each other. Body posture helps building confidence and trust amongst audience.
Moreover, the video was very fascinating and helpful for giving out the best presentation. Delivery of speech was done very well and the tips mentioned were easy to inculcate in order to become a good public speaker.
