Power Presentation Tips by George Torok

Confident speakers:

Are comfortable with silence.

Smile more.

Say less.

Dare to be different.

Show they can be vulnerable.

Move slower. (Rapid movement looks nervous)

Are comfortable with ambiguity.

Know what they don’t know

Accept responsibility.

Share credit.

Don't feel 100% confident all the time.

Do not pretend to be perfect.

Speak in simple words.

Welcome questions and challenges.

Are willing to face their fears

Are willing to learn from every presentation.

Consider the perspective of their audience.

Stay focused on topic.

Are clear about their purpose.

Spend more time reading the audience instead of their notes.

Observe speakers who you judge to be confident. Note how many of these attributes they follow. Then check your own presentation. What characteristics are you already doing? Where do you need to improve? I bet that some items on this list surprised you.

Speaker confidence is not what you feel - it is what your audience perceives.

You can be a more confident speaker. Learn how to transform your presentation so that you project confidence. Attend this tele-seminar:
