In this step by step approach to public speaking we show you how you can master the public speaking basics. Because there really are only 5 building blocks for effective public speaking. And they are incredibly simple, yet we all struggle with them. That’s probably because someone hasn’t explained how the simple things all add up to effective public speaking.

So, that’s our job in this course. Master the simple things and become better at the impressive things.

You have seven different interactive lessons in the course. These are:

  1. 1
    Eliminate Ums and Ers When You Present
  2. 2
    Introduce The Pause As You Present
  3. 3
    Achieve More With Tone And Emphasis
  4. 4
    Use Your Words Well
  5. 5
    Plan To Repeat Yourself

Additionally you also have the means to test yourself as you progress through the learning materials.

Essential Foundations for Your Presentation Success

5 Lessons

Premium course

You know that we learn from others. And you'll know that we also start to learn from a very young age indeed, well before formal schooling. That learning is considerable, taking in mechanical skills, movement and dexterity for example. But we also learn, very early on, how to use ums and ers when we speak. And that's something we have to consider as we get ready for a presentation.

The pause is an essential part of presenting. But it's often overlooked. So, in this lesson we aim to put that right. First we look at the non-existent role played by the pause in conversation. And then we consider how this is a problem for us, as we aim to become effective at giving presentations..

When you speak with tone and emphasis you add layers of quality to your conversation. And, not surprisingly, you achieve the same with a presentation. So, in this lesson we look to use stress and tone in our spoken word as a matter of course. And, importantly we don't adopt a boring monotone speaking voice just because it's a management presentation.

Surprisingly the same rule that applies for conversation also applies for your presentations. So, aim to keep all the simple words and simple sentences. Avoid abbreviations or acronyms and remember to steer well clear of jargon and management-speak.

We don't tend to repeat words or phrases when we're having a conversation. And if we did then we can guarantee that our co-conversationalist will tell us. However, this conversation rule doesn't apply when you give a presentation. Yes, in a presentation you really can, and should repeat the most important bits.
