Public Speaking - The Power of Demonstration

Your job as a speaker is to make your content interesting and memorable. Facts, statistics, numbers or raw data alone won't do that. Humanizing your speech -- adding human interest to it -- makes it meaningful. It shows you have a grasp of the issues and it makes it interesting for your audience. When you humanize your presentation, you make it mesmerizing and memorable. 

Here are a few examples of one great humanizing concept, the demonstration.

The demonstration often can involve the audience. Here are a few clever ones I've seen over the years:

Public Speaking - The Power of Demonstration

A minister trying to create a calm, peaceful atmosphere: He divided the congregation into thirds. At his cue, the left side snapped their fingers, the right side patted their hands together, and the middle section beat their chest. The different combinations of the percussive noise created the sound of rainfall!

A nutritionist demonstrating how much sugar is in some of our foods: She asked a volunteer to hold out his cupped hands. She explained she was going to spoon tablespoons full of sugar into his hands to show the audience how much sugar was in a 20 ounce soft drink. She began spooning and asked him to stop her when he thought she had reached the total. Pretty soon his hands were full. As soon as the sugar starting spilling over his hands, he said that must be it. She kept spooning a few more until she had spooned 17 tablespoons!

A facilities designer talking about the need for clear communication: He handed everyone a piece of paper and asked them to close their eyes. He proceeded to give folding and tearing instructions for everyone to follow, keeping their eyes closed. After a minute or so of directions, he asked everyone to open their eyes, unfold their piece of paper and hold it up. Amazingly, everyone in the room had a different-looking snowflake-like design, underscoring his point that just blanket instructions-without clear explanations, demonstrations, and feedback-were not enough to guarantee consistent outcomes.

There are other forms of demonstration that don't necessarily involve the audience, but use props to give the speaker a wonderful opportunity to make a point.

Once an environmentalist used an apple to represent our earth. Little by little, she cut off and discarded pieces of it, describing how each piece represented the oceans, inhospitable land, developed areas. What she finally had left was 1/32 of the apple. She peeled the skin off that tiny slice. "This tiny bit of peel represents the very thin surface of the earth's crust, which is less than five feet deep, upon which we grow the food to feed the world." 

A nurse dietitian: When she started her presentation, it looked as if she was wearing a long red scarf that was draped around her neck with the ends hanging down in front of her. But at one point in her presentation, when she talked about ways to give yourself some exercise during the day, she whipped the scarf off to show that in fact it was a stretch band for exercising. And then she demonstrated a few exercises with it.

A nutritionist asked for two volunteers: She gave one an apple and one a pear and asked them to turn their fruit into a banana. Both of them were baffled and didn't know what to do. When it was clear they weren't even going to try, she asked them, "Is there any way you can turn your apple or pear into a banana?" When she received the negative response, she turned to the audience. "Ladies, how many of you were born with a pear-shaped body?" (hands up, laughter) "How many of you were born with an apple-shaped body?" (more hands, more laughter) "Ladies, you cannot be a banana!" (Applause!)

The 40th Birthday Speech - How to Write a Good One

You've got the task of preparing a 40th birthday speech.

You want it to be a 3 minute dazzler to mark the milestone occasion however right now the job feels like a millstone.

There are lists of things to say and equally large lists of things not to say but not a lot about how to actually write the speech.

The 40th Birthday Speech - How to Write a Good One

And that's where having step by step outline and a 40th birthday speech sample to look at would be good.

As of now you can quit tearing out your hair. Instead grab a piece of paper and a pen. We're going to go through the steps needed for you to have a completed 40th birthday speech that you'll be proud to deliver.

Let's start by getting down to basics with a few questions first.

Who is your audience? Is it family? Is it family and friends? Is it a mix of family, friends and work colleagues? Are they a mix of ages? What type of celebration is it? Is it a formal dinner party? Is it informal? Are you the only speaker or one of several?

The tone and what you put in your speech will be guided by your answers to the questions above. Obviously you'll leave out anything that could be misunderstood or inappropriate for your audience.

Now let's get the building blocks of your 40th birthday speech together.

On your paper write down these 3 headings with large enough spaces in between for notes.

1. Introduction 2. Middle - Main idea 1, Main idea 2, Main idea 3 3. Conclusion

Using your knowledge of the audience, the birthday person and the occasion, begin filling in the blanks.

For instance next to 'Introduction' you might write: Hi and welcome to Bob's 40th birthday celebration. We're delighted to have you all with us.

And now move on to the next heading: Middle.
This is where you're going to put the most important points (main ideas) you want to make. As a birthday speech is generally only 3 minutes long you've got enough room for three. What you choose is up to you. Mostly though they're a mix of good natured fun about the birthday person, what they mean to you and perhaps a word or two of wisdom.

So your 'Middle' notes may look like this.

Main Idea 1: Childhood - I remember when Bob was 3 he wanted to be a fireman. He'd spend all day making siren noises and putting out imaginary fires with the garden hose. Main Idea 2: Youth/Young adulthood - Collecting baseball cards, learning to skate board, getting his first real job Main Idea 3: Present/Character/ Future - Along came Sally (wife) and children, joy, fatherhood, responsibility, promotion in job

Lastly write your notes next 'Conclusion': quote (you're going to look up some amusing or witty quotes on being 40 and weave one in here) and final toast. Example. 'Ladies and gentlemen, let's raise our glasses to Bob. May you have another happy energy filled 40 years!'

OK. This isn't a speech yet but it is an outline. To make the transition from this to a whole 40th birthday speech you are going to go back through and flesh out your notes making each idea link smoothly to the next.

The easiest way I know of doing this is to say it out loud as if you're just chatting with a friend.

I'll give you one example and then you can do the remainder for yourself.
We'll pick up

Main Idea 1. 'I remember when Bob was 3 he wanted to be a fireman. He'd spend all day making siren noises and putting out imaginary fires with the garden hose'.
What's needed is a bridge or transition to get from this idea to the next, 'collecting baseball cards, learning to skateboard and so on.

How about this? 'Fortunately for Aunty Betty's ears his next passion was quiet and neither did it leave puddles in the yard. It was baseball cards. Bob collected hundreds of them. He bartered for them, begged for them and stuck them all over his bedroom walls. Now he was Denny McLain with the roar of crowds as he stepped up to the plate cheering him on. Baseball was struck out by skateboards. Yehaa! We skated all over the city and Aunty Betty bought out the entire supply of band-aids from the supermarket...'

Now you have the idea, repeat it through all the parts of your outline.
It's important to say each segment outloud and experiment with links until you find the one that sounds right.

When you've finished linking say the whole speech aloud several times. Listen carefully and edit where necessary.

The process is simple. It works and that's how to write a unique 40th birthday speech you'll be pleased to deliver.

PS Do you want to see a finished sample before you begin your own writing? You'll find links to handy pages of witty and wise birthday quotations too.

Public Speaking - How to Get on the "Speaking Circuit"

"I have to get on the public speaking circuit."

As a professional speaker, I can't tell you how many times I have heard that exact phrase from people who would like to add public speaking as either their main or a supplemental source of income to their business or career.

I have been professionally speaking in many capacities since I began my career in 1992, always in front of audiences for one thing or another.  So people naturally ask me all the time,

Public Speaking - How to Get on the "Speaking Circuit"

"How do I get on the speaking circuit?"

Here's the thing.  It's a big secret we speakers keep to ourselves so we know when we're talking to a fellow speaker or just someone who thinks they may want to be on stage somewhere someday.

There IS NO speaking circuit.

None.

Zippo.

Zilch.

Nada.

So unless you want to look like a total beginner, stop saying you want to get on some type of circuit. Seriously there is none.

Let's look for a moment at the definition of "circuit" according to Dictionary.com:

"a periodical journey from place to place, to perform certain duties, as by judges to hold court, ministers to preach, or salespeople covering a route."

and

"a number of theaters, nightclubs, etc., controlled by the same owner or manager or visited in turn by the same entertainers or acting companies."

Perhaps in the acting or preaching industries there may be a circuit.  And in fact, this could be where some of the confusion around the topic comes from, especially because public speaking can often involve travel "from place to place."  But make no mistake, there are not many professional stages that qualify as a "circuit."

Every speech you are booked for is usually just for that one stage and that one occasion.  And that's it.

To others on the outside of the speaking business it may appear there is some sort of speaking circuit.  That's because in certain niche markets a handful -- say 20-30 of the most popular speakers often appear at various events together or in some combination at the events for that niche market. 

And how do those same speakers get hired time and again? Simple: results. The information they share gets the audience the results they want.  When audiences are happy, event planners are happy.  When event planners and audiences are happy, speakers get a good reputation.  And that's what gets you the next speaking gig.

So don't despair that there isn't really a speaking circuit. Because as you get hired and continue to market yourself and grow as a speaker, the opportunities will flow to you as easily as if there was a public speaking circuit.

Public Speaking - 4 Simple Steps to More Impactful Speech Content

The process of developing the content of your speech is fundamentally important to effective public speaking. Meaningful content is critical to writing a great speech and without it the presenting skills of voice, language, body language and gestures are of little use to the listeners or the speaker.

The process of developing the content of your speech can be frustrating and use up a vast amount of time. But you can use a 4 step process to simplify and streamline the development of content for your speech.

1. Decide on the Purpose

Public Speaking - 4 Simple Steps to More Impactful Speech Content

The purpose of the speech must justify the time and energy put into it by you as speaker and by the audience listening to it. The speech purpose needs to answer the question "What will this presentation do for my audience? The considerations to keep in mind when deciding on the purpose are;-

(i) How will the presentation benefit the audience?
(ii) Is it appropriate for the audience?
(iii) Is the speech being given for entertainment or is a specific action wanted from the audience
(iv) The circumstances and situation of the speech, e.g. at a charity fund raising event your talk will be delivered to raise money

2. Developing the Theme

Your theme should be stated in a clear, brief and meaningful statement. The theme chosen must be able to be developed to accomplish the purpose. To develop the theme you will need to keep in mind a clear picture of the audience and in your judgement

(i) Has the greatest influence on your audience
(ii) It can be developed successfully for your audience
(iii) It supports the purpose
(iv) The audience characteristics such as age, number, experience, attitude etc

3. Selecting the Style of The Presentation

The style(s) chosen to deliver your speech must support the purpose of the speech and it will determine the type of information you need to gather in the research step.

There are 2 criteria you can use to select the style of your speech:

(i) The purpose for speaking
(ii) Audience's attitude and understanding

The 5 styles that can be used in delivering your speech are:

(i) Humor - the principal idea is to entertain the audience
(ii) Narrative - used to tell a story of people, places and events
(iii) Exposition - used to describe, explain or demonstrate an idea
(iv) Argument - presentation of facts and other evidence to support your ideas
(v) Motivation - uses emotional appeals to the audience to take a certain action

Humor and narration are more likely to be utilised when the audience is to be entertained. Argument and motivation are usually used when a specific action is wanted from the audience.

4. Research

The goal of research is to uncover information to support and justify the theme and ideas of the speech. The first step in research is to develop a rough outline of your speech so that the research is properly focussed.

The primary source of information should be your own experiences. Once you have exhausted your experience, there are many other sources of information that can be utilised. The other sources include books, films, TV, interviewing other people and of course the internet. When using these sources it is important to use your judgement as to the validity of the information.

You will now have the content necessary to outline, organize and write and deliver your speech . Mastery of the process of developing the content will enable you to write and deliver a speech that is of benefit to the audience. With the knowledge that your content is valuable to your listeners your confidence will increase and you will enjoy the experience of public speaking more.

Fear of Public Speaking

Public speaking ranks above death as the number one fear of things people are afraid of! Most people have an irrational fear of speaking in public, stemming from an intense fear of being appraised by others as stupid, foolish or boring. Other reactions are fear of embarrassment or humiliation. This leads people to high states of panic, dread and feelings of rejection. In reality, this is more closely related to people's own emotional reactions of being judged by others. Common public speaking tasks such as presentations, meetings, client interviews or wedding speeches can lead people to intense distress and apprehension. This irrational fear can inhibit people from being social, fearing the worst in cases of having to introduce themselves to others in an academic or social situation.

People tend to think that everyone is staring at them and demanding perfection. Nobody's perfect, we all know that, but somehow, this ridiculous fear is manifested. This makes people feel 'the spotlight' and intense self-scrutiny can cause the speaker to become incredibly distracted, getting lost in their notes, forgetting what they were talking about, losing focus in a meeting or being unaware of their surroundings.

Some people even feel so threatened by the idea of having to speak in public at a future event that is causes them undue stress in the months, weeks and days preceding the event. People can worry unduly about the speech or presentation in advance that the event itself is doomed for failure. The speaking event itself, under such self-generated pressure, often ends up with the speaker suffering from sweating, twitching, inability to speak slowly and clearly, a blank mental state or blushing and laughing their way through their speech. In the aftermath of such stress, the speaker is lost in a sea of self-analysis, wondering what they could have done to prepare better and how badly those that witnessed such a traumatic event have judged them. This hardcore fear of public speaking differs from shyness because it turns a normally social and outgoing person into a panic-stricken, incoherent and mumbling idiot.

Fear of Public Speaking

Many powerful people at the top of their corporate ladder fear public speaking. This can lead to an impression from their audience that they are disinterested, reserved or aloof. Why does this happen? Very successful people are often called on to share their knowledge in their area of specialization because of the wisdom they have acquired being good at what they do. These people realize they are irrationally uncomfortable with this scenario, understanding logically that they have been asked to speak because people WANT to learn from their expertise. Phobias are attributed to being a fraudulent use of imagination, causing creative and artistic people to be especially vulnerable to this type of public speaking phobia.

This fear may be caused by a myriad of bad experiences- from childhood shyness to adult anxiety or panic attacks. People with panic attacks tend to develop a phobia due to the fear of the confidence-shattering panic attack happening again, which throws them into a vicious cycle of panic for panic's sake

Three Ways to Overcome Your Public Speaking Fears

I am going to show you three specific ways to overcome your public speaking fears, but first you need to believe that the fear and nervousness you are experiencing CAN be overcome.

1. It is normal to be nervous and even fearful before getting up to speak in public. Most great actors feel nervous before going on stage; world class athletes are nervous before a big event so don't feel that you have to be fearless!

If you can accept that your nerves are a normal response and not unusual in any way, then you start to release the tension and allow yourself to function effectively. Because fear is a normal physiological response that releases adrenaline into your bloodstream - preparing you for the fight or flight response - you can harness the help you are being given.

Three Ways to Overcome Your Public Speaking Fears

Adrenaline heightens your responses and gives you the extra 'lift' to give of your best.

2. Work out where your fear of public speaking comes from. With most people it is a fear of appearing foolish - nobody wants to look daft - so preparation is the key. Your self-esteem is a powerful mantle and you don't want to lower it by exposing yourself to laughter or ridicule.

You may feel that the audience won't like you - in fact they are probably more supportive than you may think. You may be worried that the audience will not like your speech or value the content of what you have to say.

Aim for approval from your audience and you will find yourself well pleased too; but never at the expense of compromising the truth of the message you deliver.

3. The audience knows nothing of your fears; audiences like this have seen many speakers before and are looking forward to hearing your speech. Because they are 'neutral' all you need to do is hide your nervousness and act the part of an accomplished speaker.

Think about speakers YOU have seen before; how did they look and act. COPY THEM! Now bear in mind why you have been asked to speak; keep your material simple but to the point and focus on what you believe the audience needs to understand.

Put their needs before yours and you will be assured of giving a great speech. The only other thing to remember is that audience feedback ill tell you how you're getting on.

If they start to get restless, it is far better to call an unscheduled break and regroup forces than it is to continue without positive audience feedback.

These three ways to overcome your public speaking fears will soon have you saying "I enjoy giving a speech, and I'm actually good at it."

How To Be A Great MC- Multiple Speaking Intelligences Part One

What are the secrets of being a great MC?

Being asked to MC an event can happen anytime. At a social setting, at work or for more formal occasions.

Because of my business as a professional speaker, I'm often called on to be a professional MC.

How To Be A Great MC- Multiple Speaking Intelligences Part One

Take for example my recent experiences hosting the Real Estate Institute of WA's (REIWA) formal annual dinner, and the presentation of the Kevin Sullivan memorial Award, the Institute's highest accolade.

A professional MC can make or break an event.

What do people remember?

It's not the children's choir, the corporate video or the music. It's not even the venue or the food.

The secret to a great event is the person who brings all of these diverse elements together and then delivers them with personality, humour and charm.

Your choice of Master of Ceremonies will have a big impact on the success of your event.

And the fact is, high profile does not equal success. I've heard famous name MCs tell inappropriate jokes and get guests, organisers and sponsors immediately offside.

The MC (also known as Emcee) has a very unique role to play at an event. There are many duties to perform and not everyone can be organised and entertaining at the same time. It's a special skill.

But the good thing is, it is a learned skill.

Here is the first part of a series of articles on what I call the multiple speaking intelligences every aspiring or experienced leader needs.

In this first part, here are 10 Tips on how to be a great MC for every occasion.

1. Get A Good Briefing

Clarify with the event organiser beforehand what their expectations are and what they want exactly.

2. Work To A Running Sheet

There is a lot to remember and do as an MC. Make sure your event organiser provides a running sheet so you know what happens and when.

3. Run On Time

The major role of a good MC is to keep the event running on time. It is your role to make this happen. No one likes an event that runs over time.

You need to be firm on time. This is one element that is non-negotiable.

4. Be The Glue That Holds The Event Together

Your role as MC is to be the glue or cement that holds the event together.

You have to link, segue and make a transition directly from one section or theme to another during the entire event.

The best MCs do this seemlessly and effortlessly.

5. Focus On The Speakers and Performers

Remember the speakers or performers you are introducing are the stars of the show not the MC.

Don't grandstand, big note or let your ego get in the way.

Let the event elements, be they speakers, performers or award winners shine.

6. Rehearse

Spend time at the venue before hand getting used to the stage, lighting and sound system.

Practice your lines out loud. Warm up your voice. Get in the moment.

7. Research

Research the speakers or performers you are introducing.

As an absolute minimum do a Google search on them. Always request a formal introduction from speakers.

Most professional speakers will provide a prepared introduction.

8. Provide a Mix of Entertainment and Information

The key to a good MC is light and shade.

9. Let Your Personality Come Through and Be Yourself

Don't be overly wooden or scripted. Let your personality shine through.

10. Have Fun

If you are having fun so are the others speakers and the audience.

Relax and enjoy the moment.

Public Speaking Topics - How to Choose a Great Topic For Your Speech

What is the importance of public speaking topics?

Let's start at the beginning. Do you have to give a speech? While it is a nerve-wracking prospect for most people, the good news is that if you come up with a great topic for your speech, which you can prepare well for, then the actual speech does not need to be something to dread.

Great public speaking topics makes it easier for you to relax and get into public speaking

Public Speaking Topics - How to Choose a Great Topic For Your Speech

It really is important to have a speech topic that you can get passionate about - or if not passionate then at least interested. This way you'll have more fun researching the speech and you will be able to relax into your interesting, informative speech topic and focus on the content of your speech rather than focusing on how nervous you are.

Persuasive speech topics

Do you need to give a persuasive speech - perhaps a sales speech, or narrative speech topics to a panel where you need to persuade the listeners over to your point of view? In these situations, the best possible speech topic to use is a story. Decide what your main points are, what you need to get across to your audience, and then for each point pick one or two stories that illustrate it.

People are not persuaded so much by facts as by emotion, and a great public speaking tip is to incorporate stories in order to make your speech much more persuasive.

Public speaking topics for groups

Are you just starting out in public speaking? Do you need to come up with interesting speech topics that you can present to a group but are not sure what topic to cover?

Here are some questions to ask that will help you choose the right speech topic for your audience - and for you, the speaker.

What is my audience interested in? What is the purpose of their group and what topics, that I could use in my speech, could relate to their purpose? What are the goals of my audience? Do they want to have a fun social evening, to achieve a business goal, to learn about something, to laugh? What are my goals for this speech? How can I relate my own goals to those of my audience?
Researching your speech topic - the key to success

When you have a great idea for a speech topic, researching it will be fun and easy. Here is the process I use for researching my own speech topics when preparing for a public speaking topic. You can follow my process or tailor it to one that will get YOU motivated and excited!

First I brainstorm my topic. I sit down with paper and some colored pens and let my imagination run riot. I jot down or sketch any and all ideas that come into my head that relate to my speech topic. Next, I go to my local library and immerse myself in the appropriate section that relates to my speech topic. I pull out books at random and browse them, jotting any ideas or useful facts that I come across down in my notebook. Finally, I set aside some quiet time to use the computer and write up my notes into speech form. Any extra research that I need to do at this stage, I use the Internet, being careful to take facts and figures only from reputable web sites.

Using these public speaking tips and your own imagination and thoughts, you are sure to come up with great public speaking topics!
