In her first appearance on Smashing The Plateau, former opera singer and celebrated speech and media coach Ruth Sherman taught us to command the room by mastering the art of public speaking. Today she reveals why presentations are one of the most effective ways to speed up your success. She also shows us how to get over our fears (and stay committed) by taking a more systematic approach to speaking.
We discuss…
- Finding speaking opportunities within your organization
- Why you don’t need natural charisma to nail public speaking
- Book the gig, then prepare for it
- Why most people take too long to ask for help (and how to get it sooner)
