Rehearse Away Your Fear

In this podcast, the ninth and final one in the series based on my book, Give Your Speech, Change the World, I talk about ways my clients and I have found useful over the years for reducing fear.  I offer some tips on preparing just before a speech or presentation, and some longer-term ideas.  In addition, I talk about rehearsal -- why it is helpful, and how to do it, including some ideas for rehearsal that you've never thought about, guaranteed.  The podcast is just under 7 minutes long.  Enjoy!

 

 

Podcast 9 Rehearsal and Fear

Comments

Nice article, thanks for the information.

I have always been ok with public speaking but I find that reheaersing in front of a mirror a few times can make a big difference. Getting your delivery and expressions down can be the difference between a speech that is "the bomb" or a speech that is just, a bomb.

Thanks for the Post, Nick.

I particularly like the idea of rehearsing in the room where the talk will be delivered.

Good advice!
