Como você pode se adaptar a um novo papel de falar em público com confiança?

Hablar en público para unos puede ser "muy fácil" y para otros "extremamente difícil y estresante". Pero es cierto que al inicio, los nervios pasan con todos. Para superar eso, 3 puntos importantes: 1) Preparar el contenido/ mensaje que deseas pasar/ hablar de manera confortable, sin líos o contenidos complejos que te enredes; 2) Estudiar el contenido a ser presentado, saber cuando debes enfatizar determinada información, por ejemplo; 3) Practicar antes, cuanto más conozcas de tu presentación y de ti mismo sobre tus habilidades y debilidades (sí, todos tenemos), mejor.

I've had people I coach say, "I'm afraid the audience knows more than I do..." Sometimes I feel that way too. It's a legit feeling. If you are an entrepreneur talking to entrepreneurs, or an accountant talking to accountants, there's a good chance you'll have people in the audience that know more. That's okay. They don't have your perspective, experience, or stories. As a speaker, you are the "expert". If you share something the audience knows, that's okay. That builds connections and confirms in them that you know what you are talking about because you are on the same page. When you do share even just a small nugget of something new, they are more apt to think, "Yeah, that's a good idea!"

I think knowing your purpose and knowing your audience go hand in hand. You can't really have one without the other....as you need to tailor your message to be interesting to the audience. I've seen too many presentations that are simply based on an information download. That is not useful. Anyone presenting needs to put themselves in the shoes of the audience...so much so that they think about what the audience members are giving up just to be there in the room. That forces you to really think about how to get through to them. Are they accountants? Make sure you include statistics in your presentation. Are they creatives? Tell a story. There are endless opportunities.

In my experience, I've found that the format plays a lesser role than the actual content. As long as you are not presenting a PPT with hundreds of slides filled with nothing but words, I think you can tailor the format to whatever works for you. That way you will likely have increased confidence and you'll deliver a stronger presentation. Yes, you will often need to work within certain constraints, but most of the time, you'll have a set time allocation, a screen to share and a stage. Spend the time thinking about your audience more than thinking about your format.

In my experience, practice is THE MOST critical component to delivering an excellent presentation. Competence breeds confidence...and you can't build that competence without practicing. I practice any presentation a minimum of 5 times, recording into my Voice Memo app on my phone and then re-playing it leading up to the moment I go on stage. As you rehearse, you identify the areas that are weak or unconvincing, and you adapt them accordingly. Additionally, as you play back your presentations and listen to them, you pick up additional areas where you could improve. All of this gives you the confidence you need to deliver the best presentation possible.

Knowing your material well is one of the most critical facets of presentations. If the technology fails, the show must go on. No sound system, keep going louder. No PowerPoint, no problem. No lights, use your phone flashlight. Everything that matters is your message, that is what cannot fail!!!!!

I've found that, when you've practiced enough, and you've thought about your audience and what they really meed/want to hear, you'll have the confidence you need to pivot if things go astray. You can also improve your resilience when you accept that some things are up to you and others are not. As soon as you realize that so much is out of your control, it's quite liberating. You can't control the tech difficulties, or the audience member in the first row who is exhausted and not paying attention. Instead, focus on what you can control. And, if you've done the practice, and you know your audience, then you'll have the confidence to keep going and adapt accordingly.

É incrível como a comunicação pode ser poderosa em nossas vidas, não é mesmo? Quando somos abertos e honestos um com o outro, podemos construir conexões mais profundas e compreender verdadeiramente os pensamentos e sentimentos um do outro. Por outro lado, quando ficamos em silêncio e não nos comunicamos, deixamos muito espaço para interpretações. Então, meu conselho? Não tenha medo de falar e compartilhar seus pensamentos e sentimentos com as pessoas ao seu redor. E se outra pessoa não estiver se comunicando com você, não tenha medo de perguntar o que está acontecendo - às vezes, basta um pouco de esforço para romper o silêncio e criar uma conexão mais forte.

Public speaking nerves got you in a chokehold? Buckle up, newbie, and embrace the rollercoaster! New roles mean bumps and loops, but you'll conquer them with the adaptability of a chameleon and the resilience of a rubber band. Think of it like mastering a trick shot: the more tools you have in your toolbox – humor, improvisation, audience engagement – the smoother you'll land, even when the script flips. So, take a deep breath, embrace the unexpected, and remember, public speaking isn't just about delivering lines, it's about riding the whitewater rapids of communication with grace and grit. You got this!

You should know and learn your content,but critically your content should be structured in a way that gives you enough confidence that you have preemptively captured your intended audiences reactions,rejections, implications. Your aim should be for the audience to have no questions and for them to say “this company/product/person gets me”..

Just be yourself and be comfortable with your content. Anxiety can get the better of you if you feel that what you are saying, or how much you have prepared is not good enough. There may be a feeling that what you are saying or presenting isn't good enough or that they already know it. Get into a conversation and flip roles. Ask a/some members of the audiences to narrate some incidences or some examples that have relevance to the context that you are discussing. This will help you understand if it makes sense to them, and the audience also gets involved then

Taking a moment to perform a quick "body scan": close your eyes and examine your body's feelings mentally section-by-section. While doing the body scan, focus on belly breathing (large breaths "down" with the diaphragm, keeping the shoulders relaxed and belly expanding) to calm your body and mind together. These two mindfulness methods are a great way to take a momentary time-out to be mindful of the physical manifestations of stress on the body; this helps you to take a moment to evaluate your current emotional state, your current thoughts, and how they are affecting your body. Becoming aware of this connection can help to focus on previously unknown sources of discomfort, and even help to reduce physical strains caused by emotions.

3 TIPS NOBODY TELLS, HELPING YOU TO BECOME A GREAT KEYNOTE SPEAKER I transformed into a leading keynote speaker on design thinking innovation and I like to share three tips, nobody tells you, not even AI: 1. BE THE FIRST IN THE VENUE. Exploring the venue, going all the way to the back, walking to every corner, makes you feel THE VENUE IS YOURS. After this, I dress in my stage-outfit, and I know the venue is mine. 2. NEVER INTRODUCE YOURSELF. You are the hero, and heroes either do not need an introduction or get introduced. 3. NEVER ALLOW QUESTIONS. Questions break the rythm of your performance, and can get you into trouble too; Q&A in private. I wish you lots of success! #keynote #keynotespeaker #speaker #motivationalspeaker
