VISUALISATION STRATEGIES
  • Concentrate on how good you are.
  • Pretend you are just chatting with a group of friends.
  • Close your eyes and imagine the audience listening, laughing, and
    applauding
  • Remember happy moments from your past.
  • Think about your love for and desire to help the audience.




                                                               PUNJABIANS
STRATEGIES IN ADVANCE OF PROGRAM
  •   Even if you do not like the topic, develop an interest in it.
  •   Be extremely well-prepared.
  •   Anticipate hard and easy question.
  •   Organize.
  •   Memorize your opening statement.
  •   Practice.




                                                                      PUNJABIANS
STRATEGIES JUST BEFORE THE PRESENTATION
  • Be in the room at least an hour early, if possible, to triple check everything.
  • Concentrate on searching for current and immediate things that are
    happening at the event that you can mention during your speech
    (especially in the opening).
  • Get into conversation with people near you.
  • Look at your notes.
  • Take a quick walk.
  • Concentrate on the ideas.
  • Concentrate on your audience.
  • Hide speaking notes around the stage area so you know you have a
    backup if you happen to draw a blank.
  • Shake hands and smile with attendees before the program.
  • Double-check your A/V equipment
  • Say something to someone to make sure your voice is ready to go.
  • Go somewhere private and warm up your voice, muscles, etc.
  • Go to a mirror and check out how you look.
  • Breathe deeply, evenly, and slowly for several minutes.


                                                                     PUNJABIANS
STRATEGIES WHEN THE PRESENTATION BEGINS
  • If your legs are trembling lean on a lectern/table of shift your legs or
    move about.
  • Don't hold notes.
  • Use eye contact.
  • Look at the friendliest faces in the audience.
  • Do not comment on your nervousness.




                                                                     PUNJABIANS
ON-CAMERA TECHNIQUES
  •   If your presentation is being videotaped before a live audience, ignore
      the camera. Likewise, if you are being interviewed before a camera,
      the viewer expects to see you communicating with your ‘live’ audience
      or interviewer.
  •   If you are interviewed by a television reporter, keep your comments
      short and to the point.
  •   If you must face a hostile interview on-camera, avoid the appearance
      of surprise. The only preparation is to expect an opening question that
      is hostile, direct, admissions, or explanations.




                                                                   PUNJABIANS
SKILLS AND ATTITUDE TO CONQUER STAGE FIRGHT
  • To unlearn the unwanted physical reactions associated with stage
    fright, you must practice performance before an audience.
  • Mold your attitude around all your successes. Remember what success
    feels like, what it looks like.
  • Even when you perform in a less than stellar fashion, remember the
    parts you did that were outstanding.
  • Replace negative attitudes with positive ones. A positive attitude will
    lead you to seek any help you may need to improve. A negative attitude
    shackles your personal and professional life.
  • Decide beforehand that it will be a fun experience.




                                                                 PUNJABIANS
