      Persuasive Public Speaking - 50minutes

      Problem: How can I manage my nerves and overcome fear in order to successfully speak in public?

      Uses: It is impossible to escape public speaking in the professional world. Whatever the form of public speaking, managing stress in order to develop and improve speaking skills in any environment is beneficial to all.

      Professional context: Searching for jobs (individual or group interviews), internal presentations (project proposals, service objectives, outcomes, meeting minutes), professional speeches (conferences, seminars, training sessions, fairs, presentations at universities/schools).

      FAQs:

      Why are we afraid of public speaking?

      What practical exercises can help to overcome stress?

      How can I prepare my speech?

      What mistakes should be avoided?

      What should I do if I lose my train of thought during my presentation?

      How can I remain calm when faced with a difficult question?

      Should I be afraid of silence?

      Is a PowerPoint presentation always necessary?

      All speeches, whether to large or small audiences, are different, mainly due to the fact that the audience itself is never the same.

      That said, are we condemned to always view public speaking as if it were a laborious task? If even the best speakers cannot control all the parameters that make a public speech successful, what will become of us mere mortals? Are we reduced to always apprehend this type of speaking? Or, worse still, once we have overcome the fear of speaking, are we then left inevitably
