Be genuine - people can see through an act
Share stories - people relate to real life
Keep it light - a little humor helps
Involve the audience - ask questions
Don’t over script - nobody likes readers
Get to the point - don’t ramble
Read the room - move on if they’re bored
Admit your weakness - say you’re nervous
Finish on time - no overtime in speaking
Most important…
Take every opportunity to be in front of the room and speak up. Experience is the best teacher when it comes to speaking.
