5 Quick Tips for Executive Women When Speaking in Public
  1. Do stand with two feet on the ground. Move with purpose and to shift energy. To present yourself powerfully, don't wrap your legs around each other, cock a hip, or fold your arms at your waist.
  2. Ensure that your facial expressions, body language and gestures relate to, and enhance your verbal message.
  3. When you increase the volume of your voice, don't raise the pitch.
  4. If you need to bring the group to order, use music at an increased volume, or a chime.
  5. Make sure that no jewelry or fashion accessories interfere with your microphone, or create a noise or hint at discomfort or over-accessorizing.

For these and other techniques, consider attending my upcoming Powerful Presentation Skills workshop on Wednesday, November 11th in Carlsbad.

Attendance is strictly limited to support maximum learning.
