#PublicSpeaking #Entrepreneur #PresentationTips
Hey fellow entrepreneurs! 👋
So, here’s the thing – I used to have major stage anxiety before giving talks and presentations. But over time, I’ve developed a little ‘hack’ that helps me crush it on stage every time. 💪
Wanna know the secret? It’s all about engaging your audience and humanizing them. Here’s how I do it:
– Ask interactive questions like “raise your hand if…”
– Run real-time polls for audience participation
– Let them access your slides on their phones
– Encourage them to repeat information or phrases
– Take questions during the presentation
– Include a short exercise for them to do in pairs
By engaging your audience and seeing their reactions, you’ll realize they’re just like you – human. This mindset shift can work wonders for your confidence on stage! 🚀
Give it a try and let me know how it goes for you! Trust me, it works like a charm. 😊 #PublicSpeakingHack #EntrepreneurLife #EngageYourAudience
Thank you for sharing.
I did toastmasters – was a brilliant course and changed the way I approach public speaking!
Love this! Humanizing the audience is key to overcoming stage anxiety.
Thank you for the interesting insights and engagement-hacks. Most of us know the feeling before a presentation, but being well prepared and knowingly having something valuable and engaging up your sleeve helps a lot, at least me.
Additionally, rhetorical questions and confident body language like hand gestures, “eye”-contact with the crowd (aka. scanning the crowd) and speaking slow and clearly with vocal variety helps me, and maybe you, too.
Love this approach, totally humanizes the experience!
Just remember that at the end of the day everybody, be it rich be it poor be it attractive famous etc, will go the washroom, do the thing, and wipe their own a**, just like you do
only one I don’t like is being told to repeat things out loud. Makes me feel like a child or like I’m in some kind of MLM cult.
This is good advice.
It’s been a while since I have had to speak to a large group but my problem wasn’t really with the talking per sé but remembering to breathe at the beginning and take it slow. Once I got my first deep breath in everything worked out much better.
Still wasn’t crazy about it though.
