Public Speaking

Public Speaking Course Scotland

You’re in a senior position or you’re leading a team. You’re expected to do public speaking.

But how can you do that confidently?

Why Some Of Us Hate Public Speaking

There’s this idea that some people are natural public speakers.

They were good at it since childhood.

It’s totally false.

Public speaking, like anything else, is a skill that can be learned.

And some people become so well-versed at it we believe they’re naturals.

But no You too can learn these techniques.

Nervous public speakers often tell the audience how they’re feeling

Let me say first of all that I’m not really used to public speaking…

“So bear with me as I try not to make a hash of it.”

Stop! Why are you sharing your own fears and hang-ups with the audience?

Instead, use this opportunity to share your goals and ambitions.

Let’s get you ready for this brave new world of public speaking.

Here are some of the basics

• The audience cares about how they feel more than how you feel

• They want to be inspired, intrigued or interested in what you have to say

• You’ve been asked to be in this position in front of the microphone

• Now capitalise on it by learning how to master public speaking
