  • Know the room
  • Be familiar with the place in which you will speak. Arrive early, walk around the speaking area and practice using the microphone and any visual aids.
  • Know the audience
  • Greet some of the audience as they arrive. It's easier to speak to a group of friends than to a group of strangers.
  • Know your material
  • Practice your speech and revise it if necessary. If you're not familiar with your material or are uncomfortable with it, your nervousness will increase.
  • Relax
  • Ease tension by doing meditation or breathing exercises.
  • Visualize yourself giving your speech
  • Imagine yourself speaking, your voice loud, clear, and assured. When you visualize yourself as successful, you will be successful.
  • Realize that people want you to succeed
  • They don't want you to fail. Audiences want you to be interesting, stimulating, informative, and entertaining.
  • Don't apologize
  • If you mention your nervousness or apologize for any problems you think you have with your speech, you may be calling the audience's attention to something they hadn't noticed. Keep silent.
  • Concentrate on the message - not the medium
  • Focus your attention away from your own anxieties, and outwardly toward your message and your audience. Your nervousness will dissolve.
  • Turn nervousness into positive energy
  • Harness your nervous energy and transform it into vitality and enthusiasm.
  • Gain experience
  • Experience builds confidence, which is the key to effective speaking.
