Speaking Skills 2 of 10


Speaking Skills
2 of 10
When you’re assigned a class presentation, think
twice before dismissing it as an unimportant part of
your education. Employers look for speaking skills
in job applicants, who may have to give
presentations to clients or represent their
organization in the field. It’s never too soon to
practice good eye contact and other public speaking
techniques.

According to the book of lists, the fear of public
speaking ranks number one in the minds of the
majority of people. Far above the fear of death and
disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a
crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker
wants to help people overcome that fear.

“The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent
of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said
Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the Study of
Anxiety Disorder (LSAD) in the Department of
Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin.
“People have had to turn down job, and certainly
students have dropped classes because of it.”
Regardless of your occupation, your success
depends a great deal upon your ability to
communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a
meeting, selling a product, making a presentation,
motivating co-workers or just communicating one-
on-one with others, you’ll get far better results if you
can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
