“This is not about public speaking.
Public speaking is a middle-aged white guy standing in front of a podium, telling you details you don鈥檛 need to know about a topic you鈥檙e not all that interested in.

He thinks he鈥檚 funny.

His mustache is funny.

This is about finding your voice and using it fearlessly.”

“I don鈥檛 believe in lowering the pitch of a woman's voice so she can be heard on a microphone that was made for a man. I don't believe that the natural sound of a woman's voice makes her sound 'annoying' or 'unintelligent.' I do believe that all women are capable, by making small, specific changes, to speak in a way that both reflects who she is and commands a room.”

In other words:
What do they think right now?
What do they need to think after my presentation?
This will help you determine where your presentation needs to take your audience from and to.”
Alex Merry, Make It Count: How to deliver high-stakes presentations to people you need to impress at work

“The problem with most presentations is they emotionally flatline and the audience struggles to connect with the speaker and the message as a result. A presentation needs both positive and negative moments in order for it to be an engaging and memorable experience.”

“Effective speaking is about the unpredictable and uncontrollable art of connection.”
Bren茅 Brown, Dare to Lead

“For some reason, the former President failed to rise to the response of the audience to his unconscious humor. He began a phrase modestly,
"When I was in Washington," being a euphemism for
"When I was President" and the audience burst into laughter. Afterwards, he said sadly to Mrs. Coolidge:
"They seemed to be in a strange mood. I never spoke to an audience which laughed before.""
Yet a few weeks later when an enthusiastic woman Republican gurgled at him:
"Oh, Mr. Coolidge, I enjoyed your speech so much that I stood up during the whole speech. I couldn't get a seat."
Quipped Coolidge: "So did I!”

Susan Cain
“But don鈥檛 risk having children make a speech to the class unless you鈥檝e provided them with the tools to know with reasonable confidence that it will go well. Have kids practice with a partner and in small groups, and if they鈥檙e still too terrified, don鈥檛 force it. Experts believe that negative public speaking experiences in childhood can leave children with a lifelong terror of the podium.”

Ruth Bonetti
“To all of you who suffer from stage fright agonies, take heart. You suffer because you are not a potato. Does a potato possess your abilities, your sensitivity, or richness of imagination? Do you want to present like a potato? Do people pay to hear potatoes speak? Your imagination makes your life harder but, when you have conquered your fears, it will set you apart.”
Ruth Bonetti, Speak Out - Don't Freak Out

Ruth Bonetti
“A first recorded instance of 鈥減resentation anxiety鈥 occurred around 1300BC when God commissioned Moses to urge Pharaoh to free the Hebrew slaves. 鈥淧lease send someone else!鈥 pleaded Moses to God. 鈥淚'm a nobody. I'm not eloquent. I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.鈥 Perhaps he stuttered.

Poor Moses. As well as having to argue with God and Pharaoh 鈥 and convince the Hebrews they should follow him to the Promised Land 鈥 he had to overcome his insecurity as a speaker.

Moses鈥 story reveals an important truth 鈥 the more we speak in public, the less our fears intrude and the more we grow in confidence. If Moses, the self-confessed 鈥渘obody鈥, could surmount his fears, so too can we.”
Ruth Bonetti, Speak Out - Don't Freak Out

“The fear of public speaking 鈥 the ultimate test of nerves. It's like being on stage with a spotlight that's way too bright and an audience that's way too judgmental. But, my friend! Embrace the adrenaline rush, channel your inner stand-up comedian, and turn those nerves into fuel for a killer performance. Remember, even the smoothest speakers started somewhere, stumbling over words like a toddler learning to walk.”
