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, who may have to give presentations 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 middle on in the
minds of the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes
the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted authors 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, smooth and intelligently.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
