Effective Public Speaking Skill

“If you can’t write your message in a sentence, you can’t say it in an hour.” By: Dianna Booher 

Here are some important tips of public speaking to help you develop your skills and become far more effective as a public speaker:
  • Ensure your speech will be captivating to your audience as well as worth their time and attention. Videotape your presentation and analyze it. Emphasize your strong points during your presentation.
  • Present the desired image to your audience. Be solemn if your topic is serious. Appear relaxed, even if you feel nervous. Remember, you don’t look as nervous as you feel.
  • Establish rapport with your audience. If a microphone is available, adjust and adapt your voice accordingly.

Strategy tips for Keeping Your Job

In some countries, unemployment because of worker cutbacks is a big problem. Is this a problem in your country?

In response, career experts developed strategies for holding on to a job:
  • Make sure everyone knows you. Being a good worker is sometimes less important than making sure that people know you’re a good worker. Volunteer for new responsibilities, push your ideas, and generally make yourself visible.
  • Learn everything that could help you do your job better. If the company/ organization buy new computers, learn how to use them. If learning more about marketing could help you, take a short course in marketing.
