Speaking skills
2 of 10
When you’re
assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it as an
unimportant part of your education. Employers look for speaking skills in job
applicants, who may have to give presentations to clients or represented their
organization in the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and
other public speaking techniques.
According to
The Book of Lists, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds of
the majority of the people. Far above the fear of death and disease comes the
fear standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker
wants to help people overcome that fear.
“The biggest
fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of Americans experiencing a dramatic
fear of it,” said Dr. Michael Telch of the laboratory for the study of anxiety
disorders (LSAD) in the department of psychology at the University of Texas at Austin.
“people have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes
because of it.”
Regardless of
your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to
communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a meeting, selling a product,
making a presentation, motivating co-workers or just communicating one –on-one
with others, you’ll get far better results if you can speak persuasively,
smoothly and intelligently.
Choose
The Right!!!
