Public Speaking Tips - How to know if your listeners are following you?


Public Speaking Tips - How to know if your listeners are following you?


Speaking powerfully in public is an art. But, many studies have found that public speaking is the number one fear among most people. It rates even higher than fear of death. But, a good presentation means increased business, successful negotiation, and rewarding relationships.



How do you know if your audience is following you during your presentation? Given below are some suggestions to know if your audience is following you or you have lost them.


IF YOUR AUDIENCE IS FOLLOWING YOU, YOUR LISTENERS:
  • Respond warmly and attentively throughout the presentation.
  • Their eyebrows are raised,
  • They lean forward while you are talking,
  • Give you more eye contact,
  • Follow your directions more accurately,
  • Appear more relaxed,
  • Smile more often,
  • Their shoulders down are down,

 IF YOUR AUDIENCE IS NOT FOLLOWING YOU, YOUR LISTENERS:
  • Avoid eye contact,
  • Tilt their heads,
  • Close their mouths,
  • Lower their eyebrows,
  • Cross their arms and legs,
  • Turn away from you.


HOW TI IMPROVE ENGAGEMENT OF YOUR AUDIENCE
  • Finish each idea before starting new sentence,
  • Put the most important information at the beginning or end,
  • Slow down by as much as 70% to allow more time to think,
  • Shorten your sentences,
  • Tolerate silence.


The brain starts working the moment you are born 
 & never stops working   until you get up to speak in public!
