Speaking To
Death
Butterflies in your Stomach
• Know the room- become familiar with the place of
presentation
• Know the audience- greet or chat with the audience before
hand. It’s easier to speak to friends than to strangers
• Know your material-increased nervousness is due to un-
preparedness
• Relaxation- relax entire body by stretching and breathing so
as to ease the tension
• Visualize giving your speech-Visualize yourself giving your
speech from start to finish. By visualizing yourself
successful, you will be successful.
Butterflies in your Stomach
• People want you to succeed-the audience is there to see you
succeed not to fail
• Don’t apologize-by mentioning your nervousness or
apologizing, you’ll only be calling the audience’s attention to
mistakes
• Concentrate on your message-not the medium. Focus on the
message you are trying to convey and not on your anxieties
• Turn nervousness into positive energy-nervousness
increases adrenaline, transform it into vitality and
enthusiasm
• Gain experience-experience builds confidence, which is key
to effective public speaking

  12. 1. Know the purpose Before writing minutes, you must know the purpose of lt. First, a report of meeting minutes is a record. But it is just not the type of record you write, print out, file and then forever forget. it provides a historical account of official business and ciperational decisions, and involvement of people making the decisions. lt is used as a reference which is periodically or frequently referred to. 2. Keep it Concise Keep the key information in order and make sure you don't miss any imp'ortant information. You only have certain limited time and it will be impossible to write every single thing discussed during a meeting. So, keep it concise, i.e. compact and short. Take notes of the issues discussed, mijor points raised and decisions taken. Make sure what you write will be easily understood, and usable in the future. Many of the meetings require the attendees looking back at the previous meeting's minutes. So if people can't read them, they'll go for your head instead. 3. Get right information, follow right format To keep it short, here is a list of information that should be in your minutes of meeting: . Time, date and venue of meeting . List of attendance (and their position) . Agenda of meeting - key agenda, details, and specific action plan, and owner/executor of the plan . Name of person taking minutes (youl) As for the format, there is no school of thought that says there is this specific format that you need to follow. What you need is a simple and user friendly format like the following: lName of companyl IDate, Time and Venue] lMinutes prepared byl [Agenda]: 1. 2. 3. Attendies 1. 2. 3. Details of Meeting Table 4. Keep a record Normally, minutes are hand-written that are transferred into a prpper computerized document (e.g. Microsoft Word), properly restructured, save and printed out. Good and fast typists can immediately record conversation into the computer/laptop, where this requires less time for fine tuning later on. The minutes are then distributed among the attendees of the meeting, or those who will be responsible to take actions as per discussed during the meeting.

  16. Professor Albert Mehrabian has pioneered the understanding of communications since the 1960s. He received his PhD from Clark University and in l964 commenced an extended career of teaching and research at the University of California, Los Angeles. He currently devotes his time to research, writing, and consulting as Professor Emeritus of Psychology, UCLA. Mehrabian's work featured strongly (mid-late 1900s) in establishing early understanding of body language and non-verbal communications.
