Introduction
Why do presentations evoke a strange fear in most of us? Having to speak in front of a group gives you cold feet, butterflies in the stomach and heartaches.
Most often we are more than willing to work, but prefer to stay in the background. Having to project oneself and speak up in front of an audience gives us the jitters, and we would come up with a thousand excuses to skirt the issue. The fear to speak in front of others stems from childhood fears of rejection or anxiety of failure which has been left unattended. And then, all of a sudden your workplace demands you to speak or present in front of absolute strangers. You are now on public display and need to be suitably armed with skills that will help you communicate powerfully creating an impact that can affect your company positively. Content by itself will not suffice. How you deliver it is the key to powerful communication.
