5 Impressive Public Speaking Tips

Public Speaking is a challenge. To deliver your thoughts in front of a known or an unknown crowd, especially for the first time means sleepless nights, nervousness, deadlines, many rounds to the toilet and a lot more.

3 Tricks to Public Speaking for the Faint of Heart

Studies have shown that, on average, people's second greatest fear is death...... the number one fear is public speaking. That means you'd rather be lying in the casket than doing the eulogy. Ba-dum-ch! Thank you, Seinfeld. I tried to tell that jingle on a date: I ended it, instead, with "meaning you'd rather be in the eulogy...er... doing the casket...er..." All I got from the gent was a "nice try." He didn't call me.

I recently had to give a 5 minute scripted speech to an audience of 500 professors and bow-tied donors. This was no bridesmaid speech that I could wing a story about the bride trying to get tan and loose weight but looking like Elmo on a stick. I had to make it sound candid and emotional.

Andy Crouch was the speaker following me... he gave me three words of advice:

1) Be prepared

2) Be yourself

3) Love your audience

1) Be prepared

This one goes without saying, but if you want to deliver a good speech, know your speech. Practice, practice, PRACTICE. Know transitions and content.

2) Be yourself

Everyone who has seen daytime TV can tell when someone's faking it. You don't want to be the next Joel Osteen. One of my boyfriends in highschool became a pastor (I know) and inherited a british preacher's accent on stage--"Oh Gawwd, please, come into our hawts." Be your clear, steady, confident self. You were picked to speak for a purpose. If they wanted Colin Firth, they would have asked him.

3) Love your audience

This was by far the greatest piece of advice I received. Whatever remaining minutes you have before you enter the stage, stare into the eyes of the audience and build up a swarthy dose of gushing love for their cheeky faces. Public speaking will never be the same if you can deliver sincerely for the sake of those listening. Put them on your good side and stop feeling like your Jesus before Pilate.

If anything, focus on the first and last trick. That's all folks.
