Is it you I need to thank?
In my early career I considered myself the Worlds Worst Presenter.
I would shake, get a full on body blush (I used to have to wear a polo neck) and my voice would do this weird Tarzan thing.
Naturally shy, happy to blend into the background I was horrified when my boss said, 'Your personality profile says you should be a speaker'.
I started small with 20 minute tool box talks. In the end I got over myself and whilst I am still introverted, as long as my message is helping or inspiring someone to lead a better work-life I’m happy to get on that stage.
I have been anonymously nominated for The Speaker of the Year Award. Whoever nominated me, thank you x This means so much.
To win, votes contribute towards the outcome. You can vote here. Here's to all the other introverted speakers!
Thank you x
