Scenario 1

You are at a party and bragging about your child’s skill at mimicking famous personalities. You call your son to show your friends how well he performs. He is overly shy, blushes and runs away. 

Scenario 2 

Your daughter is thorough with her dialogues for the skit. On the day of her performance, she just goes blank seeing the audience and stands frozen on the stage. 

Scenario 3

Your daughter excels in her studies and performs well in sports and cultural programmes. But she is not in any leadership position in her school because she shies away from speaking in front of the class or school.  

Do these situations ring a bell?

These situations could translate into different scenarios tomorrow

As a Project Manager can she give a presentation in front of her client or does she freeze up?

As the CEO of her start-up is she able to make a confident pitch to her investors or does her nervousness make her fumble?

As a doctor does he make the presentation to his peers well or does his fear of public speaking prevent his obvious talent from shining forth?

Whatever career your child chooses – the ability to speak and present in public is not just a HUGE ADVANTAGE but an absolutely NECESSARY SKILL.

The fear of speaking in public is called GLOSSOPHOBIA

It is the fear that is greater than the fear of death – the fear of public speaking. 3 out of 4 people suffer anxiety, stress and near-panic at the thought of having to speak in public. But being able to speak in public is a critical skill for success in almost any career.

All the great speakers were bad speakers at first 

– Ralph Waldo Emerson

Have you ever wondered why some people are more successful and famous among their peer group? 

The obvious answer would be their gift of the gab. They are good at communicating their thoughts, articulating their ideas, and presenting them in an interesting way that grabs the attention of everyone.  

Speaking grammatically correct language does not make a person a great public speaker. There is more to it.
