“According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.”

-Jerry Seinfeld

If you’re like most people, you don’t really learn public speaking in school or later at work in a way so you feel actually comfortable ‘on stage’. Perhaps you had a few opportunities to present your work, maybe you even read a book on public speaking, or took a weekend course.

When you begin to practice public speaking on a regular basis, you will start to lose your stage fright, become comfortable in speaking to a larger audience and – even begin to love it! 

Being able to articulate yourself, present your arguments and speak up in front of other people is a super power – far beyond your career.
