A low-level speaker is often afraid to stop and always wants to finish the content quickly. In fact, this is a sign of lack of self-confidence.
They found the pause awkward. In fact, a moderate pause is part of your speech, and it may even make your speech by going up one flight of stairs.
When I was training, at the beginning, the audience often felt a little uneasy. At this time, I will hold a microphone and watch the audience say nothing.
Soon, the students in the audience will feel that something is wrong, so they will calm down and stare at me. Only then will I continue teaching.
This pause has a deterrent effect and is an authorization to the speaker. During the speech, if you want to express a clear point, you must pause before that.
Just like in our articles, we will make some ideas or golden sentences bold, just to make them eye-catching and easy for everyone to accept.
2, from shallow to deep
A good speaker will not tell you a bunch of big stories at the beginning, but start with a small thing around us.
These little things are closely related to everyone, not only will they not be abstract and empty, but they will attract everyone's attention more easily.
You can watch Obama's speech. At first, it was all about his daughter or other small things, and finally it was sublimated to the national level.
Whether I teach or speak, I will start with food, children and the relationship between husband and wife. First arouse everyone's resonance, and then gradually output ideas and ideas.
This is better than telling the truth and concepts from the beginning 100 times.
3, rhythm control
Can you believe it? The same manuscript, different people, the effect of the speech is completely different. What is the difference? Is the difference in rhythm.
Many people always use the same rhythm and intonation throughout the speech. This makes the speech lose its spirituality.
As a matter of fact, a good speech is like singing, sometimes with high notes and sometimes with low voices.
The four simplest rhythm elements of a speech are: fast, slow, light and heavy. Only when these four rhythms are well coordinated can the speech be full of tension.
4. One point at a time
The easiest way to screw up a speech is to confuse several ideas.
The biggest difference between the speaker and the audience is that they have different understanding of information. You are an expresser, and the ideas you want to express must be what you already want to understand, so that you think the audience should understand.
Actually, it's not. Listeners usually have a process of digesting new ideas. You need to express each idea as an "organic unit".
The so-called "organic unit" must have structure, not just a sentence. The simplest structure is: viewpoint+argument.
When you put forward an idea, you must have an argument to support it. An argument can be a story, or some data, or even some research results.
This can not only strengthen the correctness of the point of view, but also reserve digestion time for the audience.
5. Arrogant and rude
Friends who are familiar with Uncle Liang will say that I am usually friendly and modest. But once on stage, he is very domineering.
This is actually determined by the nature of the speech. Speech is not a negotiation, exchange, debate or interview, but a stage for your performance.
Just as an actor plays a hero, ta should behave like a hero. The task of the speaker is to make the audience accept your point of view unconditionally, at least in this case.
Therefore, you need an unquestionable attitude to implement it. You can think about the speeches of politicians and business leaders. These are all expressions of modesty.
Through their firm tone and deep eyes, they all seem to be telling a true story, which makes the public follow his thoughts involuntarily.
Even if they read according to the script, they will not give up this point. Roosevelt and Churchill, for example, don't stare at the speech and read it sentence by sentence.
But look at two sentences, then look at the audience and express it forcefully.
Therefore, from this perspective, speech is not so much a technical problem as a verve problem.
