BE CONFIDENT
Be certain that you will give a spectacular
presentation. Your audience wants to root
for you. Give them a reason to do so by
being secure in your abilities. A study
published by a university stated that a
highly confident speaker is viewed as more
credible than a less confident speaker. 
BE PASSIONATE

You need to exude a level of sincerity

in your emotion when
communicating to your audience if
you want them to be moved by your
presentation.
PRACTICE, DON’T MEMORIZE
Memorization can set up a barrier
between you and your audience so
practice with the full expectation that
something unanticipated will happen .
SPEAK IN A NATURAL VOICE
In general you should try to speak in a
conversational tone. Any connection
you’ve made with your audience could
be broken by tones that seem ‘fake’ or
‘too perfect’. 
BE AUTHENTIC

Be vulnerable and open about your

life, this will give your audience
permission to listen with their
hearts as well as their ears.
KEEP IT SHORT AND SWEET

You want to make sure that your presentation is

easily digestible for those listening to you. If
you can complete your speech in 15 minutes,
do so, and leave any remaining time open for
questions and comments. No matter what,
don't fluff your audience.
CONNECT WITH YOUR AUDIENCE
A skilled presenter knows that public speaking
is a conversation with the audience and
navigates the energy of the room with
material that best connects his message with
the audience. Don't just speak to your
audience, speak with them.
PAINT A PICTURE THROUGH STORYTELLING

Humans are wired for stories. This is why the best

presentations don’t feel like presentations, they are
simply stories told by people with interesting
experiences. The latest brain research demonstrates
that even the simplest stories can reshape our
neurology and body chemistry.
Stories will help you connect with people and change
them at a deep level.
