speechnetwork's one day "Fast track" public speaking and presentation course

 

"To overcome nerves, take your time, breathe slowly. This gives you time to compose yourself"

When presenting at any level, there is always that feeling of nervousness just before you start. You may probably be thinking;

How do I look?
What will they think of my presentation?
Will they believe me?
Are they judging me?
Will I remember my key points?

Simple techniques that anyone can use to reduce their nervousness;
1. Set yourself up
2. Pan the Audience and the room
3. Take a deep deep breath, a couple more if you need to. Whatever it takes to make you feel comfortable.

Since majority of our time when dealing or communicating with people it is on a 1 on 1 basis, but by communicating to a group of people, it is sometimes out of people's comfort zones, therefore, relax, breath, take your time and then present.

 
 

 
Public Speaking or Presenting is a common source of stress to everyone. Many of us would like to avoid this or overcome our public speaking nerves. Whether we work alone or with large numbers of people, eventually we will need to speak in public to get certain tasks accomplished. And if we want to be leaders or achieve anything meaningful in our lives, we will often need to speak to groups, large and small, to be successful.
The truth about public speaking, however, is IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE STRESSFUL! If you correctly understand the hidden causes of public speaking stress, and if you keep just a few key principles in mind, speaking in public will soon become an invigorating and satisfying experience for you.

What is public speaking (Presenting)?
Public Speaking or Presenting is effectively communicating your message across. Whether you are speaking at a one-to-one and personal level, it still lies essentially with communicating your message effectively. Effective communication is the key to resolving conflict, inform, persuade, inspire, lead and to essentially get your ideas across.

Testimonials from past participants  
Terry Chung
Consultant, Adaptris Pty Ltd

I had reached a road block in my development and practice as a leader. I felt that I needed something more practical to complement my experiences. This course became dawn sun’s rays, illuminating the darkness I was in- the frame work and theory is second only to the experience, wisdom, knowledge and delivery style of Pamella.

Sean Huang
Sales, WC Penfolds

After meeting Pamella thought the Youth leadership seminar, I was more than happy to attend the young professional Accelerated Leadership program. Reasons for this include the amount of content covered in such a short period of time, and also the amount of expertise Pamella has. She is more than willing to share her personal experiences and incorpaorate it to the course. At the beginning of the course, I was very nervous when put on the spot to make an impromptu speech or even just to speak in front of an audience. But, after acquiring the skills pamella taught, I gained confidence in myself and in the audience as I believe they were interested in what I was going to present to them.

John Khoury

An enjoyable workshop, where practical learning takes place in a non-threatening environment. Great value, instead of attending a two-week course, the relevant information were distilled in a day.
