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 represent 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 people. Far above the fear of death
and sleaze, comes the fear of standing on front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted
author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.
“The biggest fear us public speaking, with 15 percent of American
experiencing a dramatic fear of it” said Dr. Michal 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!!!
