Wie können Sie mit Nervosität und Angst umgehen, wenn Sie eine Rede halten?

It’s okay be nervous, it’s bad to appear nervous. My recommendation is 4Ps - Prepare- know your audience, topic, exisiting views & opinions. Create a narrative for your speech - Practice- couple of times to weave your narrative comfortably like a story- practice to deliver facts, shocks, audience engagement in different manner. Choose your comfort. - Perform - Go & deliver , do not judge yourself, let it flow naturally, it’s okay if you miss something as no one new what you had planned 🤩 - Pat On Your Back after the speech It’s easier than you assume. Wish you good luck!

Remember that you are sharing information with an audience that might not know as much about the subject as you do. Speak with authority.

If you're interested in expanding your leadership skills while also practicing how to deliver authentic presentations, I encourage you to look in to Toastmasters! For me, it's been a game changer professionally, for sure, but personally as well!

1. Think about your goal, is it worth more than your nerves? 2. Remember, you're not the protagonist; the audience is, those whom you will serve with your message. 3. Only talk about what you know well. 4. Visualize yourself giving the speech calmly and confidently, and envision success upon finishing. 5. Focus on your breathing, exhaling slower than you inhale to induce calm. 6. And finally free yourself from expectations afterwards and trust in what you know, and in your goal to contribute.

Imagine you are an actor in a Broadway play. You are delivering a performance. Start with a hook, an interesting point, an anecdote, or a question that engages the audience to keep listening. If you are able, add a bit of sense of humor. People display interest when you seem relaxed and approachable. Most importantly, practice. Repeat it to yourself at least three times in front of a mirror and do not hesitate to pause when you want to create even more impact. Pace yourself.

Before you deliver your speech, make sure you research and understand the topic, as this will not only give you credibility but also clarity. When you understand your topic, you are able to organise your thoughts and present them in a coherent manner. Additionally, when you understand your topic, it gives you confidence and you are more comfortable to deliver your speech

Structure your Ideas well before even creating a speech. Visualise the context and content and then work on your speech to create the lasting impact. To StandOut and be remembered, Try using my ‘GIVE’ Framework. Great opening : Grab your audience’s attention with a hook,question, statement or humour. Intentional content: Create a content that is driven with an intent,be it problem solving,enlightenment or anything. It makes the audience think and feel. Valuable information: Back your speech with insights,examples that are of value to audiences Ending Note:Your end should leave audience with an actionable thought. Try to incorporate this, you will no longer feel nervous or anxious.

1. Be passionate about your topic. 2. Pick a few people in the audience, look at them and talk to them like you are talking to your friends. 3. Try to make it a two-way conversation by asking the audience questions.

Even if you're an expert on a topic, you can't ignore preparing your message based on the audience. Without preparation and prior practice, it's easy to Without prior preparation and practice it is easy to become nervous.

When I feel nervous before a speech, I rely on a few techniques to help manage my anxiety. I start by taking deep breaths and practicing mindfulness to calm my nerves. Then, I make sure to rehearse my speech several times beforehand to boost my confidence. Visualizing a successful delivery and reminding myself that mistakes are okay also help ease my anxiety. During the speech, I focus on engaging with the audience and maintaining a positive mindset to shift my focus away from my nerves.

One thing I've found helpful is to practice the speech and get feedback from a number of different people - it helps me to memorise the speech and everyone gives super helpful advice that makes the talk better. The second thing that helps me was practicing the speech in the space where I would deliver it. This has helped me to get over nerves for when I have to speak on stage by getting a sense of the room and the logistics.

Yes. Rehearse. Rehearse. Rehearse. One tip here is to practice your speech the way you want to say it. And record it. Then - have it transcribed (AI Tools have made this very easy and inexpensive). Then go through and edit and read it again like a script. Make your changes as you read it again and again - and make changes. At some point do it without the script in front of you. And practice.

ADOPT A FAMILIAR PRESENTATION STRATEGY: Adopting a well defined strategy you are comfortable with helps a speaker overcome anxiet during presentation. These strategies could be ● Audience Engagement such as starting your speech with a question, relatable quote or song. ● Intentional Pauses: As they say silence is golden, appropriate pauses helps your nerves during speaking. ●Persuasive Strategy: Using analogies to convince your audience on accept your point of view.

When I am working with clients on overcoming public speaking limitations through hypnosis, I always incorporate visualization of the speech in the final stage of transformation, including behavior, cognition, and emotions.

Además de practicar la dicción, los tonos, recitar y verse frente al espejo, hay un elemento clave: controlar la respiración y saber hacer pausas. Una persona que sabe "oxigenarse" y hablar rápido o pausado a base de respiraciones bien controladas, es un orador que tendrá éxito, en la mayoría de los casos. La práctica al hablar, genera la experiencia necesaria para ser un orador exitoso.

I wouldn't say it's exactly relaxation that needs to be done. You could leverage your anxiety to your advantage. Take, for example, what Rebecca from Ted Lasso used to do when she had to deliver a speech in a room full of men who thought they knew the soccer business better than she did. She would lean forward, take a deep breath, grow taller with her arms wide open, and then make an assertive sound. The goal of this was to take up as much space as possible, conveying power and confidence. Anxiety can be useful in this regard, although it might generate an aggressive vibe. However, we all have to remember one rule - the energy and its level have to match that of the room. If you're gearing up for a verbal duel, anxiety can be beneficial.

Someone once observed that physiologically, nervousness looks a lot like excitement. If you can trick yourself into believing that you’re more excited about the opportunity to share your insights and expertise on a topic you’re passionate about than you are scared of standing in front of an audience of strangers, your excitement will come through, and push your anxiety to the background.

It’s not always possible to eradicate all nerves/anxiety. What you can do is harness this nervous energy by knowing the content (including anecdotes and stories) of your intro, three key points, and conclusion. Don’t focus on memorizing the entire speech word-for-word. Why? Because if you forget a single word, you may be thrown off. Instead, know the material so well that you can comfortably talk about the subject matter. Another tip: Take a short, quick walk before taking the stage. When I was competing in a district-level Toastmasters contest (large audience), I jogged down the long hallway right before I took the stage. When I got to the stage, I looked excited and energized!

One thing to remember is that unless you're going into a notably "hostile" audience (e.g. a board meeting, or something built to be confrontational) - then in almost every single case - the audience WANTS you to be great. They are rooting for you. Know that. Know that as you walk out - they are not looking at ways to be bored, or how you're wrong - they want you to be great, insightful, funny and engaging. That can help you relax as you get ready to walk out.

Depending on who your audience is, it could be helpful leveraging and even announcing that you are anxious in a lighthearted way, this establishes a connection with the audience that you could use for a more relaxed delivery of the speech. One way that I have found to really help, and even take some of the stress out, was having something in your hand as you do the presentation. For instance, a stress ball or a paper clip or a bottle of water. I usually have a small bottle of water in my hand and if I feel overwhelmed or seem to have forgotten a point I would have a sip giving myself a moment to collect my thoughts.

This is a good tip - but the key is that you should focus much more on how you will make this audience feel - rather than how detailed you are. In other words, audiences will forgive you if you don't dot every I, or cross every T in your argument, or thesis in your talk. But they're less forgiving if you bore them with 70 slides of detailed facts.

Unless you're one of the most horrible human beings in the world, odds are your audience is out there rooting for you to succeed. Maybe not rooting, but at the very least they don't want to be bored or think it's a waste of time so they're hoping you'll be interesting. That means any presenter who is crisp, concise, and ready with the answers will be welcome with their attention and appreciation. Know that going in and makes it a heck of a lot easier to take the stage.

I've always felt that knowing WHAT to say is actually sometimes more imporant than HOW to say it. Spending time in the preparation phase to really isolating the key message/purpose of the presentation and what you want the audience to know, will help you keep it simple. If you're nervous, we can sometimes get tripped up with our words, whether it is a speech you're tyring to read/remember, lines to take in an interview, or the notes you've created to support a slide in a presentation. But if you really know WHAT the point is, if the nerves kick in, you can just remember the point and say it simply. KISS (keep it simple stupid) is a great acronym that applies to quite a few things in the world of communications.

Remember, your audience are human and humans are interactive creatures by nature, do not shut down on them; make eye contact, and speak confidently and steadily (which can be done if you have practiced well before delivering your speech or presentation)

Yes to these thoughts on preparation. Also, get there early and check the setup! Nothing worse than arriving with an expectation that you can plug in your thumb drive only to find the system won't accept it. Always bring the materials you'll be using in various formats and email yourself the slides for backup. Don't forget to smile! Do it more than feels comfortable. It projects comfort and a welcoming presence. Start where your audience is and work your way back to your knowledge. They are on a journey with you. Help them relax and enjoy it!

A great way to build confidence is by starting small and then working your way up to bigger challenges. You can start by giving speeches to your small team at the office or a group of friends you are comfortable with. You can then work your way up to giving speeches in front of larger groups of people you have no interactions with. This will help build your confident as you gain experience as well.

In my experience, involving my audience and getting them to participate in the speech helps greatly to calm any anxiety. This also helps me feel that I’m not alone but I’m actually simply having a conversation with a group of people who are just like myself. I do this by asking relatable questions or sometimes telling short stories that the audience can connect with in order to convey my message.

Know why you’re there. It’s not for them to admire and applaud you, but you’re there to be of service. It sometimes helps if in the beginning of your presentation you say out loud something like: I’m happy to be, I’m here and help you understand X or become better at Y.

I remember my first-ever presentation, I fainted, but then I realized that all I needed to do was to be a storyteller. I had to learn about my topics, including local and international case studies. I practised what I preached, and after 20 years, I am considered a person who speaks well and speaks from the heart. This approach convinces my customers and audiences as they can relate to my conversations too!

It sounds trite, but music is the ultimate way to prepare and help manage anxiety and nerves before a speech or presentation. While I prefer hip-hop, calming music can also help.

The most important thing is to know who you are going to talk to, what their needs, pain points, and expectations. Secondly, we must prepare our speech, ensure it is coherent and logical so that it is easy to understand, study, and be prepared to answer questions. It is also valuable to accept that we do not have all the knowledge or answers to all questions. This makes us more human and closer to our audience. Practicing is essential; you can ask someone to listen to you and give feedback on how you are doing, whether or not our message is clear. Finally, trust in ourselves, in what we know, and in our preparation. Do it calmly, without hurry, take a deep breath, and look for a point where you can set your gaze.
