Many presentations read like lengthy novels. In business, however, audiences don’t want a book. They want the bottom line. This requires a different approach.

That last speaker you heard probably found a way to say something just right. She was so articulate, you thought. Maybe you left considering your own upcoming speaking opportunity, thinking to yourself, "If only I could choose my words so well..."
But while word choice can project gravitas, it doesn't always. It's hardly just by using sophisticated words that you’ll project sophistication. In fact, overfixating on your words can actually make you stumble. More often than not, becoming a more powerful speaker demands the reverse: Focus less on precisely what you're going to say, and worry about a few of the subtler fundamentals instead. Here are a few ideas to keep in mind. Via The Learning Factor

Yes, your words matter just not as much as you think. |

A group job interview. A high-stakes board meeting. A pitch to investors. If you’ve been in any of these situations, you know how hard it can be to speak confidently, articulately, and convincingly. Even if you think you know your message really well, speaking becomes a lot more challenging when the stakes are high. But while you can’t exactly control the outcome, you can control how you communicate in the moment. Here's how to speak well in even the most intimidating environments.

High stakes can make even the most confident speakers crumble. Here's how to keep it together.

Preparing for a talk? You're probably brushing up on your material, making sure you've got a great opening and closing planned, and practicing your pacing. And that's all great. But one thing few of us step back and think about is whether our audience will actually like us.
You can't avoid it: No matter how good your talk itself may be, you need the people listening to it to find you likable. And as the most experienced and well-liked speakers know, there are a few key strategies you can use to boost your likability from the moment you take the stage.
1. SMILE RADIANTLY Smile, smile, smile—of course. You know that. But it’s not that simple. Paul Ekman, one of the pioneering researchers in studying smiles, believes we actually use as many as 17 different kinds of smile. And the one that's most effective at communicating genuine joy is known as the "Duchenne smile," named after the 19th-century French scientist Duchenne de Boulogne. The more you tune in to others, the more likable you become.

Likability isn't some innate quality that you have or you don't. It comes down to what you do when you get up to speak.

Great advice. I may compare my previous performance as a speaker, with mu future performance with this advice in mind. I already feel it will be better.
