1. Practice. Naturally, you'll want to rehearse your presentation multiple times. While it can be difficult for those with packed schedules to spare time to practice, it's essential if you want to deliver a rousing presentation. I’m famous around the office for staying up late the night before a big presentation, practicing over and over. If you really want to sound great, write out your speech rather than taking chances winging it – if you get nervous about speaking, a script is your best friend.
Try to practice where you'll be delivering your talk. Some acting strategists suggest rehearsing lines in various positions – standing up, sitting down, with arms open wide, on one leg, while sitting on the toilet, etc. (OK, that last one may be optional.) The more you mix up your position and setting, the more comfortable you'll feel with your speech. Do a practice run for a friend or colleague, or try recording your presentation and playing it back to evaluate which areas need work. Listening to recordings of your past talks can clue you in to bad habits you may be unaware of, as well as inspiring the age-old question: "Is that what I really sound like?"
2. Transform Nervous Energy Into Enthusiasm. It may sound strange, but I'll often down an energy drink and blast hip-hop music in my earphones before presenting. Why? It pumps me up and helps me turn jitters into focused enthusiasm. Studies have shown that an enthusiastic speech can win out over an eloquent one, and since I'm not exactly the Winston Churchill of presenters, I make sure that I'm as enthusiastic and energetic as possible before going on stage. Of course, individuals respond differently to caffeine overload, so know your own body before guzzling those monster energy drinks.
3. Attend Other Presentations. If you're giving a talk as part of a conference, try to attend some of the earlier talks by other presenters. This shows respect for your fellow presenters while also giving you a chance to feel out the audience. What's the mood of the crowd? Are folks in the mood to laugh or are they a bit more stiff? Are the presentations more strategic or tactical in nature? Another speaker may also say something that you can play off of later in your own presentation.
4. Arrive Early. It's always best to allow yourself plenty of time to settle in before your talk. Extra time ensures you won't be late (even if Google Maps shuts down) and gives you plenty of time to get adapted to your presentation space.
5. Adjust to Your Surroundings. The more adjusted to your environment you are, the more comfortable you'll feel. Make sure to spend some in the room where you will be delivering your presentation. If possible, practice with the microphone and lighting, make sure you understand the seating, and be aware of any distractions potentially posed by the venue (e.g., a noisy road outside).
6. Meet and Greet. Do your best to chat with people before your presentation. Talking with audiences makes you seem more likeable and approachable. Ask event attendees questions and take in their responses. They may even give you some inspiration to weave into your talk.
7. Use Positive Visualization. Whether or not you’re a Zen master, know that plenty of studies have proven the effectiveness of positive visualization. When we imagine a positive outcome to a scenario in our mind, it's more likely to play out the way we envision.
Instead of thinking "I'm going to be terrible out there" and visualizing yourself throwing up mid-presentation, imagine yourself getting tons of laughs while presenting with the enthusiasm of Jimmy Fallon and the poise of Audrey Hepburn (the charm of George Clooney wouldn't hurt either). Positive thoughts can be incredibly effective – give them a shot.
8. Remember That Most Audiences are Sympathetic. One of the hardest fears to shake when speaking in public is that the audience is secretly waiting to laugh at your missteps or mistakes. Fortunately, this isn’t the case in the vast majority of presentations.
The audience wants to see you succeed. In fact, many people have a fear of public speaking, so even if the audience seems indifferent, the chances are pretty good that most people listening to your presentation can relate to how nerve-racking it can be. If you start to feel nervous, remind yourself that the audience gets it, and actually wants to see you nail it.
9. Take Deep Breaths. The go-to advice for jitters has truth to it. When we're nervous, our muscles tighten--you may even catch yourself holding your breath. Instead, go ahead and take those deep breaths to get oxygen to your brain and relax your body.
10. Smile. Smiling increases endorphins, replacing anxiety with calm and making you feel good about your presentation. Smiling also exhibits confidence and enthusiasm to the crowd. And this tip works even if you're doing a webinar and people can't see you.
Just don't overdo it – no one enjoys the maniacal clown look.
11. Exercise. Exercise earlier in the day prior to your presentation to boost endorphins, which will help alleviate anxiety. Better pre-register for that Zumba class!
12. Work on Your Pauses. When you're nervous, it's easy to speed up your speech and end up talking too fast, which in turn causes you to run out of breath, get more nervous, and panic! Ahh!
Don't be afraid to slow down and use pauses in your speech. Pausing can be used to emphasize certain points and to help your talk feel more conversational. If you feel yourself losing control of your pacing, just take a nice pause and keep cool.
13. Don’t Try to Cover Too Much Material. Yes, your presentations should be full of useful, insightful, and actionable information, but that doesn’t mean you should try to condense a vast and complex topic into a 10-minute presentation.
Knowing what to include, and what to leave out, is crucial to the success of a good presentation. I’m not suggesting you skimp when it comes to data or including useful slides (some of my webinars have featured 80+ slides), but I am advocating for a rigorous editing process. If it feels too off-topic, or is only marginally relevant to your main points, leave it out. You can always use the excess material in another presentation.
14. Actively Engage the Audience. People love to talk and make their opinions heard, but the nature of presentations can often seem like a one-sided proposition. It doesn’t have to be, though.
Asking the audience what they think, inviting questions, and other means of welcoming audience participation can boost engagement and make attendees feel like a part of a conversation. It also makes you, the presenter, seem much more relatable. Consider starting with a poll or survey. Don’t be put off by unexpected questions – instead, see them as an opportunity to give your audience what they want.
15. Be Entertaining. Even if your presentation is packed with useful information, if your delivery bombs, so will your session.
I find that including some jokes and light-hearted slides is a great way to help the audience (and myself) feel more comfortable, especially when presenting them with a great deal of information. However, it’s important to maintain a balance – after all, you’re not performing a stand-up routine, and people didn’t come to your presentation with the sole intention of being entertained. That said, don’t be afraid to inject a little humor into your talk. If you’re not sure about whether a presentation is “too much,” run through it for a couple of friends and ask them to tell it to you straight.
16. Admit You Don’t Have All the Answers. Very few presenters are willing to publicly concede that they don’t actually know everything because they feel it undermines their authority. However, since we all know that nobody can ever know everything about a given topic, admitting so in a presentation can actually improve your credibility.
If someone asks a question that stumps you, it’s okay to admit it. This can also increase your credibility with the audience, as it demonstrates that, no matter how knowledgeable a person might be, we’re all learning, all the time. Nobody expects you to be an omniscient oracle of forbidden knowledge – they just want to learn from you.
17. Use a Power Stance. Practicing confident body language is another way to boost your pre-presentation jitters. When your body is physically demonstrating confidence, your mind will follow suit. While you don't want to be jutting out your chest in an alpha gorilla pose all afternoon (somebody enjoyed Dawn of the Planet of the Apes a bit too much), studies have shown that using power stances a few minutes before giving a talk (or heading to a big interview) creates a lasting sense of confidence and assurance. Whatever you do, don't sit--sitting is passive. Standing or walking a bit will help you harness those stomach bats (isn't that more appropriate than butterflies?). Before you go on stage, strike your best Power Ranger stance and hold your head high!
18. Drink Water. Dry mouth is a common result of anxiety. Prevent cottonmouth blues by staying hydrated and drinking plenty of water before your talk (just don't forget to hit the bathroom before starting). Keep a bottle of water at arm's reach while presenting in case you get dry mouth while chatting up a storm. It also provides a solid object to hurl at potential hecklers. (That'll show 'em.)
19. Join Toastmasters. Toastmaster clubs are groups across the country (and the world) dedicated to helping members improve their public speaking skills. Groups get together during lunch or after work to take turns delivering short talks on a chosen topic. The more you present, the better you'll be, so consider joining a Toastmaster club to become a top-notch orator. Just don't forget, it's BYOB (Bring Your Own Bread).

Prevent cottonmouth blues by staying hydrated and drinking plenty of water before your talk (just don't forget to hit the bathroom before starting). Keep a bottle of water at arm's reach while presenting in case you get dry mouth while chatting up a storm. It also provides a solid object to hurl at potential hecklers. (That'll show 'em.)
19. Join Toastmasters. Toastmaster clubs are groups across the country (and the world) dedicated to helping members improve their public speaking skills. Groups get together during lunch or after work to take turns delivering short talks on a chosen topic. The more you present, the better you'll be, so consider joining a Toastmaster club to become a top-notch orator. Just don't forget, it's BYOB (Bring Your Own Bread).
20. Don't Fight the Fear. Accept your fear rather than trying to fight it. Getting yourself worked up by wondering if people wil

1. Thực hành. Đương nhiên, bạn sẽ muốn luyện tập trình bày nhiều lần của bạn. Trong khi nó có thể được khó khăn cho những người có lịch trình đóng gói để dành thời gian để luyện tập, đó là điều cần thiết nếu bạn muốn cung cấp một bài thuyết trình hùng tráng. Tôi nổi tiếng khắp văn phòng cho thức khuya đêm trước khi một bài thuyết trình lớn, thực hành hơn và hơn. Nếu bạn thực sự muốn âm thanh tuyệt vời, viết ra bài phát biểu của mình, hơn là lấy cơ hội winging nó - nếu bạn cảm thấy lo lắng về nói, một kịch bản là người bạn tốt nhất của bạn. Cố gắng thực hành nơi bạn sẽ được cung cấp nói chuyện của bạn. Một số nhà chiến lược hành động cho thấy dòng tập luyện ở các vị trí khác nhau - (. OK, mà cuối cùng có thể được tùy chọn) đứng lên, ngồi xuống, mở rộng vòng tay, một chân, trong khi ngồi trên nhà vệ sinh, vv bạn càng trộn lên của bạn vị trí và thiết lập, thoải mái hơn, bạn sẽ cảm thấy với bài phát biểu của bạn. Làm để luyện tập cho một người bạn hoặc đồng nghiệp, hoặc cố gắng ghi lại bài thuyết trình của bạn và chơi nó trở lại để đánh giá mà khu vực cần làm việc. Lắng nghe bản ghi âm các cuộc đàm phán trong quá khứ của bạn có thể gợi ý bạn trong những thói quen xấu mà bạn có thể không biết, cũng như tạo cảm hứng cho câu hỏi muôn thuở: "Có phải đó là những gì tôi thực sự âm thanh như thế nào?" 2. Biến đổi năng lượng thần kinh Into nhiệt tình. Nó nghe có vẻ lạ, nhưng tôi cũng sẽ thường xuyên xuống một thức uống năng lượng và nổ hip-hop âm nhạc trong tai nghe của tôi trước khi trình bày. Tại sao? Nó bơm cho tôi và giúp tôi quay bồn chồn vào sự nhiệt tình tập trung. Các nghiên cứu đã chỉ ra rằng một bài phát biểu nhiệt tình có thể giành chiến thắng hơn là một tài hùng biện, và kể từ khi tôi là không chính xác các Winston Churchill của các diễn giả, tôi chắc chắn rằng tôi là nhiệt tình và tràn đầy năng lượng càng tốt trước khi lên sân khấu. Tất nhiên, cá nhân đáp ứng khác nhau với chất caffeine quá tải, do đó, biết cơ thể mình trước khi gã háu những thức uống năng lượng quái vật. 3. Tham dự thuyết trình khác. Nếu bạn đang đem lại một cuộc nói chuyện như một phần của một cuộc họp, cố gắng tham dự một số cuộc đàm phán trước đó của các diễn giả khác. Điều này cho thấy sự tôn trọng cho các diễn viên của bạn trong khi cũng đem lại cho bạn một cơ hội để cảm nhận ra khán giả. Tâm trạng của đám đông là những gì? Folks trong tâm trạng để cười hoặc là họ cứng hơn một chút? Là các bài thuyết trình có tính chiến lược hay chiến thuật trong tự nhiên? Loa khác cũng có thể nói điều gì đó mà bạn có thể chơi tắt của sau này trong bài thuyết trình của riêng bạn. 4. Đến sớm. Nó luôn luôn tốt nhất để cho phép mình dành nhiều thời gian để giải quyết trước khi nói chuyện của bạn. Thêm thời gian, đảm bảo bạn sẽ không bị trễ (ngay cả khi Google Maps tắt) và cung cấp cho bạn rất nhiều thời gian để có được thích nghi với không gian trình bày của bạn. 5. Điều chỉnh để Khu vực xung quanh của bạn. Điều chỉnh nhiều hơn với môi trường của bạn, bạn đang có, thoải mái hơn, bạn sẽ cảm thấy. Hãy chắc chắn để dành một số người trong căn phòng nơi bạn sẽ được cung cấp trình bày của bạn. Nếu có thể, thực hành với các microphone và ánh sáng, chắc chắn rằng bạn hiểu được chỗ ngồi, và được nhận thức của bất kỳ phiền nhiễu có khả năng gây ra bởi các địa điểm tổ chức (ví dụ, một con đường ồn ào bên ngoài). 6. Gặp gỡ và chào hỏi. Làm tốt nhất của bạn để trò chuyện với người dân trước khi trình bày của bạn. Trao đổi với khán giả làm cho bạn có vẻ dễ thương hơn và gần gũi. Hãy hỏi người tham dự sự kiện các câu hỏi và trong phản ứng của họ. Họ thậm chí có thể cung cấp cho bạn một số cảm hứng để dệt thành nói chuyện của bạn. 7. Sử dụng trực quan tích cực. Dù có hay không bạn là một thiền sư, biết rằng nhiều nghiên cứu đã chứng minh hiệu quả của các visualization tích cực. Khi chúng ta tưởng tượng ra một kết quả tích cực cho một kịch bản trong tâm trí của chúng tôi, nó có nhiều khả năng diễn ra cách chúng ta hình dung. Thay vì nghĩ "Tôi sẽ là khủng khiếp ngoài" và hình dung mình ném lên giữa trình bày, hãy tưởng tượng mình nhận được tấn cười trong khi trình bày với sự nhiệt tình của Jimmy Fallon và đĩnh đạc của Audrey Hepburn (sự quyến rũ của George Clooney sẽ không làm tổn thương một trong hai). Suy nghĩ tích cực có thể được vô hiệu quả - cung cấp cho họ một shot. 8. Ghi Đó Hầu hết khán giả đều đồng cảm. Một trong những lo ngại khó khăn nhất để lắc khi nói trước công chúng là những khán giả đang bí mật chờ đợi để cười vào những sơ suất hoặc sai lầm của bạn. May mắn thay, đây không phải là trường hợp trong đại đa số các bài thuyết trình. Các khán giả muốn nhìn thấy bạn thành công. Trong thực tế, nhiều người có một nỗi sợ nói trước công chúng, vì vậy ngay cả khi khán giả dường như không quan tâm, rất có thể là khá tốt mà hầu hết mọi người nghe bài thuyết trình của bạn có thể liên quan đến cách thức dây thần kinh-kệ nó có thể được. Nếu bạn bắt đầu cảm thấy lo lắng, nhắc nhở bản thân rằng khán giả được nó, và thực sự muốn nhìn thấy bạn đinh nó. 9. Hãy hít thở sâu. Đi-đến lời khuyên cho bồn chồn có thật với nó. Khi chúng tôi đang lo lắng, cơ bắp của chúng tôi thắt chặt - bạn thậm chí có thể bắt mình giữ hơi thở của bạn. Thay vào đó, đi trước và có những hơi thở sâu để đưa oxy tới não và thư giãn cơ thể của bạn. 10. Nụ cười. Smiling tăng endorphins, thay thế sự lo lắng với bình tĩnh và làm cho bạn cảm thấy tốt về trình bày của bạn. Mỉm cười cũng thể hiện sự tự tin và nhiệt tình với đám đông. Và tip này hoạt động ngay cả khi bạn đang làm một webinar và mọi người không thể nhìn thấy bạn. Chỉ cần đừng lạm dụng nó - không ai thích những chú hề điên cuồng nhìn. 11. Bài tập. Tập thể dục trước đó trong ngày trước khi trình bày của bạn để tăng endorphins, mà sẽ giúp làm giảm bớt sự lo lắng. Tốt hơn trước khi đăng ký cho rằng lớp học Zumba! 12. Làm việc trên tạm dừng của bạn. Khi bạn đang lo lắng, thật dễ dàng để tăng tốc độ giọng nói của bạn và kết thúc nói quá nhanh, nó sẽ gây ra bạn chạy ra khỏi hơi thở, cảm thấy lo lắng hơn, và hoảng sợ! Ahh! Đừng sợ để làm chậm và sử dụng tạm dừng trong bài phát biểu của bạn. Tạm dừng có thể được sử dụng để nhấn mạnh một số điểm và giúp bạn cảm thấy nói chuyện đàm thoại hơn. Nếu bạn cảm thấy mình mất kiểm soát nhịp của bạn, chỉ cần mang một pause đẹp và giữ mát. 13. Đừng cố gắng che quá nhiều vật liệu. Vâng, bài thuyết trình của bạn nên được đầy đủ các thông tin hữu ích, sâu sắc, và hành động, nhưng điều đó không có nghĩa là bạn nên cố gắng ngưng tụ thành một chủ đề rộng lớn và phức tạp thành một bài thuyết trình 10 phút. Biết bao gồm những gì, và những gì để lại ra ngoài, là rất quan trọng cho sự thành công của một bài thuyết trình tốt. Tôi không gợi ý bạn tiết kiệm đồ khi nói đến dữ liệu hoặc bao gồm các slide hữu ích (một số hội thảo của tôi đã đặc trưng 80+ slide), nhưng tôi đang vận động cho một quá trình biên tập nghiêm ngặt. Nếu nó cảm thấy quá off-topic, hoặc là chỉ nhẹ có liên quan đến các điểm chính của bạn, hãy để nó ra. Bạn luôn có thể sử dụng các vật liệu thừa trong một bài thuyết trình. 14. Tích cực Tham gia vào các khán giả. Số người yêu để nói chuyện và làm cho ý kiến của họ nghe, nhưng bản chất của bài thuyết trình thường có thể có vẻ giống như một đề xuất một chiều. Nó không phải như vậy, mặc dù. Yêu cầu khán giả những gì họ nghĩ, mời các câu hỏi, và các phương tiện khác của đối tượng tham gia chào đón có thể thúc đẩy sự tham gia và làm cho người tham dự cảm thấy như một phần của một cuộc trò chuyện. Nó cũng làm cho bạn, người dẫn chương trình, dường như nhiều hơn cũng dễ hiểu. Xem xét bắt đầu với một cuộc thăm dò, khảo sát. Không được đưa ra bởi câu hỏi bất ngờ - thay vào đó, xem chúng như là một cơ hội để cung cấp cho khán giả của bạn những gì họ muốn. 15. Hãy là Giải trí. Ngay cả khi trình bày của bạn được đóng gói với các thông tin hữu ích, nếu quả bom phân phối của mình, như vậy sẽ thuyết trình của bạn. Tôi thấy rằng trong đó có một số câu chuyện cười và slide nhẹ nhàng là một cách tuyệt vời để giúp khán giả (và bản thân tôi) cảm thấy thoải mái hơn, đặc biệt là khi trình bày chúng với một lượng lớn thông tin. Tuy nhiên, điều quan trọng để duy trì một sự cân bằng - sau khi tất cả, bạn không phải thực hiện một thói quen độc lập, và người dân không đến trình bày của bạn với mục đích duy nhất là giải trí. Điều đó nói rằng, đừng sợ tiêm một chút hài hước vào nói chuyện của bạn. Nếu bạn không chắc chắn về việc liệu một bài thuyết trình là "quá nhiều", chạy qua nó cho một vài người bạn và yêu cầu họ để cho nó để bạn thẳng. 16. Thừa nhận bạn không có tất cả các câu trả lời. Rất ít người trình bày được sẵn sàng để công khai thừa nhận rằng họ không thực sự biết tất cả mọi thứ bởi vì họ cảm thấy nó làm suy yếu quyền lực của họ. Tuy nhiên, vì tất cả chúng ta đều biết rằng không ai có thể biết mọi thứ về một chủ đề nhất định, thừa nhận như vậy trong một bài thuyết trình có thể thực sự cải thiện độ tin cậy của bạn. Nếu ai đó hỏi một câu hỏi mà bạn gốc cây, nó okay để thừa nhận nó. Điều này cũng có thể làm tăng uy tín của bạn với khán giả, vì nó chứng tỏ rằng, không có vấn đề làm thế nào am hiểu một người có thể được, tất cả chúng ta học tập, tất cả các thời gian. Không ai hy vọng bạn có một oracle toàn trí của tri thức bị cấm - họ chỉ muốn học hỏi từ bạn. 17. Sử dụng một Stance Power. Thực hành ngôn ngữ cơ thể tự tin là một cách khác để tăng cảm giác bồn chồn trước trình bày của bạn. Khi cơ thể bạn là thể chất thể hiện sự tự tin, tâm trí của bạn sẽ làm theo. Trong khi bạn không muốn được nhô ra khỏi ngực của bạn trong một con khỉ đột alpha gây ra tất cả các buổi chiều (ai đó thích Dawn of the Planet of the Apes một chút quá nhiều), các nghiên cứu đã chỉ ra rằng sử dụng điện Stances một vài phút trước khi cho một cuộc nói chuyện ( hoặc nhóm đến một cuộc phỏng vấn lớn) tạo ra một cảm giác lâu dài của sự tự tin và đảm bảo. Dù bạn làm gì, đừng ngồi - ngồi là thụ động. Đứng hoặc đi bộ một chút sẽ giúp bạn khai thác những con dơi dạ dày (không phải là thích hợp hơn so với những con bướm nhiều hơn?). Trước khi bạn đi trên sân khấu, tấn công tốt nhất của Power Ranger lập trường của bạn và giữ đầu của bạn cao! 18. Uống nước. Khô miệng là một kết quả chung của sự lo lắng. Ngăn chặn xanh cottonmouth bằng cách ở lại ngậm nước và uống nhiều nước trước khi nói chuyện của bạn (chỉ cần không quên nhấn vào phòng tắm trước khi bắt đầu). Giữ một chai nước ở tầm tay trong khi trình bày trong trường hợp bạn bị khô miệng khi nói chuyện lên một cơn bão. Nó cũng cung cấp một đối tượng rắn để ném vào hecklers tiềm năng. (Điều đó sẽ hiển thị 'em.) 19. Tham gia Toastmasters. Câu lạc bộ TOASTMASTER là các nhóm trên toàn quốc (và thế giới) dành riêng để giúp các thành viên nâng cao kỹ năng nói trước công chúng của họ. Nhóm có được với nhau trong bữa ăn trưa hoặc sau giờ làm việc để thay phiên nhau cung cấp các cuộc đàm phán ngắn về một chủ đề được lựa chọn. Bạn càng hiện nay, các bạn càng có nhiều, nên xem xét tham gia một câu lạc bộ TOASTMASTER để trở thành một nhà hùng biện xuất sắc. Chỉ cần đừng quên, đó là BYOB (Mang Bánh mì riêng của bạn). 20. Đừng đấu tranh của Fear. Chấp nhận nỗi sợ hãi của bạn hơn là cố gắng để chống lại nó. Bắt mình làm việc lên bởi tự hỏi nếu người wil
