What transforms a speech into something tremendous, magical even, is the ability to passionately believe in the idea, product,

or thought you’re speaking about.

People will feel it if you do.

“If you don’t know what you want to achieve in your presentation, your audience never will.”

-Harvey Diamond

If you state your end goal and deconstruct each point in a logical manner, it will be much easier for the audience to follow along and engage

deeply in your message.

Think of the talks as a gigantic dinner party with all of your close friends.

Memorization and hefty PowerPoints make a speaker sound robotic.

That’s never engaging or fun.

“You must find someone who wants to help you grow as

a speaker.” -Dananjaya Hettiarachchi

Practice is essential to delivering a strong,

sincere, and succinct message to your

audience.

Professional speakers are

deliberately slow in delivery.

Not painfully so, but a pace that will

encourage everyone in the room to hang on their every last

word.

As Sir Ralph Richardson puts it,

“The most precious things in speech are pauses.”

Use them liberally.

Invite the audience to be a part of your message, not just people

who consume it.
