Your Impressive Appearance
Posture
Movement & Gestures
NODS: Neutral: Begin in a neutral position with
hands at your sidesOpen: Stay open minded to influence
audience freelyDefined: clean and limited hand movementsStrong: Make gestures limited but use them
to establish you point strong.
Use of Space – Do not panic
Use of SpaceA certain amount of space on the stage or floor is
yours by right and you should claim it.Project power by the way you stand and move;
remember you a leader when you speakDemonstrate confidence like a person who is at
ease in their own skin and with their place in the world
Show your listeners they can have confidence in what you're telling them by commanding the space around you
Don't overdo moving around, but don't minimize the area through which you move.
Using Objects
When you deal with objects in a presentation, from a remote clicker to a handout to the slide screen itself, find a way to help the object further your message and its impact.
That object is there for a reason; or there may be more than one reason. Find as many as you can.
Using Objects
Facial expressiveness
Facial Expressiveness
Audience members depend upon your facial expressions to augment meaning
If you don't have an expressive face, go to the mirror and work on creating a link between what you are trying to express verbally, and how your facial expressions make your meaning as clear as possible
As part of your practice, give your entire talk without a sound coming out of your mouth, letting your face do all the communicating.
Voice
