People like to hear what they want to hear
Careful opening
Sense the atmosphere
Tell them what they want . . .
. . . Then get your message in after

Confidence as a Commodity
Should be used more
CVs
UK very poor at this
Charisma and Charismatics Google it!

Confidence isn’t everything
Substance is key
But . . .
Substance lost if communication weak

You can change
Skill NOT Talent
Can be learned and perfected
Unconfident now ≠ Unconfident in future
Evolves

Less is more
Minimalism
Minimalism of style: wordsmovementhands

Positivity
Lighting up a room
People are pre-disposed towards it
“Mirth-sponges”“Time-thieves”
People will seek you out for good things

Aesthetics
Ugly bias
Can be problem in shallow-age
Challenge to be overcome
More emphasis needed on message and style
![Page 18: Confidence in Public Speaking Craig Jackson Professor of Workplace Psychology Birmingham City University](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e045503460f94aef96f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
“It’s all an Act, dear”
Can turn on and offControl it
Use it when needed
Being different “yous” is fine - Image-management
Break the 4th wall – post-modernise the talk
![Page 19: Confidence in Public Speaking Craig Jackson Professor of Workplace Psychology Birmingham City University](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e045503460f94aef96f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Don’t try to overly-please the crowd
You can’t win over everyone
Someone will always find you objectionableDon’t be swayed
Humour can work . . . but it can fail badly
Swearing rarely works - reduces professionalism

Humility (some)
Please and thank-yous
Deference when needed
Although you can be a diva too!

Don’t compare yourself to Others
Pointless
Do your own thing well
We’re all struggling / anxious / worried / confused

Final Tips
Use any stress you’re feeling to motivate you
They invited YOU to speak for a reason
The power is not with the audience but you
You control the environment of the venue
