Everyone wants to be a better speaker in order to close a sale or address an audience for an event. There are many things that one can follow in order to master the art of Public Speaking.
Here are 5 important points to remember while you master the art of Public Speaking:
1. Understand your audience.
It’s extremely important to know and understand your audience. It is imperative for you to know exactly what kind of audience you are going to address. If it’s a family or friendly gathering then you can entertain them with anecdotes, funny one-liners, etc. If it’s a corporate event then understand at what hierarchy of people you are going to address or speak. Keep it more inspirational and strategy-based.
2. Take every opportunity to speak.
There’s a saying, “Practice makes a man perfect”. The best way to get better and better at speaking is to do it all the time or as and when possible. Rehearsing at home alone is good but there is nothing better than speaking in front of an audience.
3. Use great body language to influence your audience.
“You cannot not communicate”; which means even when you are not speaking but still your body, emotions continue to communicate. Communication is much more than simply using words. Tone of the voice and body language are equally important. So practice your talk or speech with great body language and tone.
4. Maintain eye-contact.
One of the key ingredient of art of Public Speaking is to maintain eye contact with everyone irrespective of the size of your audience. When you maintain eye contact, it makes them feel that you are directly interacting with them.
5. Master your subject.
If you wish to become a thought leader, influencer or great speaker, then you must have in-depth knowledge of the material or subject and authentic understanding of the subject will get you closer to the audience.
