Coming on Thursday 26 Jan 2023
What Is Public Speaking? & Why Is It Important?
When you start speaking publicly, people may think that you’re a bit odd. It’s not that they don’t like you. You’re just a bit different.
You know what? That’s fine. You’re not going to get famous, and you won’t win any awards for your public speaking skills. But speaking in front of a group of strangers doesn’t need to be scary.
In fact, it can be a lot of fun!
Public speaking is not a common skill in the world today, but if you master the art of public speaking, you can change people’s perception about you. It is the only way to communicate effectively with audiences of all sizes. And it is an essential skill to use in the workplace, regardless of your role.
You need to master the art of persuasion, which is all about getting the other person to see things your way. So, in this course, we’ll cover why you need to learn how to give presentations well, and how you can develop your skills.
What are the Benefits of Public Speaking?
If you’re a passionate speaker, then you know the importance of speaking skills. They can set you apart from the rest of the world. They can help you connect with audiences, engage in meaningful conversations, and get ahead in the workforce.
But when it comes to public speaking skills, you need more than charisma. You also need to be able to tell stories, to develop a presentation style, to prepare for and deliver speeches, to work with others, and to work on your stage presence.
You can gain all of these speaking skills if you put the effort in. It might sound hard, but it’s not. And if you’re willing to put in the effort, then you can make sure that you’re speaking your best during presentations.
What Problems you may have to face if you don’t learn ?
Do you feel like a fish out of water when you speak in front of a large audience? Do you struggle to get your point across effectively? Or maybe you just want to sound a bit more confident when delivering your presentation, and come across as a more credible leader?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions, then read on. Because the first step in improving your public speaking skills is to accept that there is a problem.
If you don’t have the ability to speak in front of a large audience, you are going to struggle with your career prospects, no matter how much you try.
If you find yourself struggling to present your ideas, you are not alone. The majority of people who have difficulty presenting themselves cannot even get past the first sentence. It’s not something that you pick up overnight, and it’s definitely not a skill that you can learn in a short period of time.
If you do, you’ll be able to develop a new habit to help you improve your skills, whether it’s practicing everyday or in small chunks during the week.
And as a bonus, your presentations will become much more effective than they would be without practice.
