I have been a communication professor for nearly 20 years, and I can say from a theoretical and professional perspective that Lighthouse Communications is right on the money!
Tons of valuable content in this video on how to be a more impactful speaker. It's easy to forget that your presence is being assessed the moment you walk into the room. Confidence (without attitude) goes a loooong way. Great reminders.
Lots of great information on how to send the right information to help support my presentation and make sure my points are landing with my audience. Love the idea of using a camera to record myself. Thanks Anne! Always great information.
You're very welcome, MJ. Now that we are mostly virtual - I recommend recording yourself on Zoom. So convenient to practice! And you can truly watch "exactly" what the audience sees and hears.
Fabulous tips. I got this! I'm definitely going to be better able to "get in the zone" next time I go into a high pressure situation and have better presence. .
So true! I've seen presenters lose their audience before they even made it to the podium just based on their body language (and conversely, presenters who captivate the audience before their presentation without having said a word yet!). Good tips for how to engage with the audience using physical and vocal cues.
This one is the hardest for me because when I get nervous, I forget to move my hands and my voice becomes monotone. Rehearsing these signals has really helped.
