Speaking Skills
2 of 10
When you’re
assigned a class presentation, think twice before dismissing it is an important
part of your education. Employers look for speaking skill in job applicants,
who may have to give presentations to clients or represent their organization in
the field. It’s never too soon to practice good eye contact and other public
speaking techniques.

According
to the Book of Lists, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in minds of
the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear
of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Weiner noted author and public speaker
wants to help people overcome the fear.
“The biggest fear is public
speaking, with 15 percent of American experiencing a dramatic fear of it,” said
Dr. Michael Telch of the Laboratory for the study of anxiety Disorders (LSAD)
in the department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. ‘People
have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes because
of it.”
Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon
your ability to communicate effectively! Whether you’re running a meeting,
selling a product, making a presentation, motivating co-workers or just
communicating one-on-one with others, you’ll get far better results if you can
speak persuasively, smoothly, and intelligently.
