everything ends…life ends! Speaking is oral communication and it is extremely important that we learn, master and apply it. It

• Public speaking presents you with an opportunity to sell yourself, market yourself, create an image for yourself and do branding
for self. It allows you to connect with a lot of people at a time and influence them. It helps you get attention and creates a positive
impression of you.
• So It is very important. Public speaking can easily put you ahead of many in the race of life and career.
What are the Benefits of Public Speaking?
• Career advancement
• Effective public speaking skills can help with career advancement, as they
indicate creativity, critical thinking skills, leadership abilities, poise, and
professionalism, qualities which are very valuable for the job market.
• Speaking at events and conferences is a good way of building credibility. The
more well known the event the better, as you can add these speaking
achievements to your resume.
• Public speaking can also help you stand out at work. You'll learn to speak up in
meetings, to promote your ideas, and to present yourself as a professional.
Speaking skills can also help you excel in job interviews.
• After speaking at a few events, people will remember you and begin to see you
as an authoritative figure on your area of expertise. You’ll find yourself getting
new client and business from people who watched you speak. All sorts of new
business and speaking opportunities will open up for you
Boost confidence
Public speaking can significantly boost your confidence. Overcoming the fears
and insecurities that accompany public speaking is empowering. Furthermore,
connecting with audiences can be a strong reminder that you have valuable
insights and opinions to share with the world.
Your confidence levels will grow as you go from speaking to small groups of
people up to large audiences. This will benefit you not just on stage, but in
everyday life as well, whether it be in a meeting or on a date.
A study by North Carolina Cooperative Extension of people aged 9 to 18 who
participated in a public speaking program found that public speaking increased
confidence. The study found that meeting a goal was an important factor when it
came to increasing the students confidence.
While the nervousness that comes with speaking in front of a crowd won’t
entirely disappear, it will teach you how to deal with your fears and turn your
weakness into strength.
Make new social connections

Public speaking engagements are good places to meet other people who
share your interests. You’ll find that people approach you after your
presentation to engage in conversation. It makes it much easier to make
new social connections. Try to mingle with the audience for as long as
you can after your speech, answering questions and seeking fresh
perspectives on your topic.
Give audience members the option of getting in touch with you at a later
date by listing contact information on handouts or slides. If you have a
website, direct audience members to find more information there.
If you are part of a speaking line-up, reach out to your fellow presenters.
Congratulate them or, if you miss a talk, ask how it went. There are lots of
opportunities for networking in the realm of public speaking, so plan
ahead and make use of them.
The Importance Of listening
Listening plays an integral part of communicating and

the differences from actively listening can be seen in
multiple facets of our lives and development. Active
listening helps to:
• Learn and understand things better in a social and
professional environment
• Become better at socialising
• Better sympathise with friends and family
• Build stronger relationships by making people feel
valued
• Improve problem solving skills
• Absorb information better
Researching Your Speech
You need to research your topic, even if you know it well, so

that the details are fresh in your mind. Fresh research can help
give you this confidence. It can also supply you with up-to-
date intel that gives your speech credibility and authenticness.
Presentation or speech should be delivered with confidence.
Delivery must be with clarity and precision. A good speaker
always pauses on punctuation marks. Researching your topic
and providing strong evidence for your claims can make
your presentation more interesting, increase your credibility as
a speaker, and help you achieve your goals.
Body Speech
In communication words play only 7% of the role, 38%

is the voice quality I.e. tone, pitch, tempo etc and the
biggest share is taken up by the body language. If your
body language or non-verbal communication is
incongruent with the spoken words and the quality of
voice, the message you pass with your non-verbal
communication is accepted by others.
For example, with a very lethargic body posture if you
say that “I am full of energy”, people won't agree to
your words as your non-verbal communication says
that you are drained
Importance Of Language
Language has to also be used accurately. Using language accurately is as vital to a speaker as using
numbers accurately to an accountant. Every word has shades of meaning that distinguish it from every
other word.
Language must also be used clearly. People are different. What makes perfect sense to someone else
may be confusing to others. A speaker must never assume that what is perfectly clear to him is clear to
his audience. Listeners, unlike readers, cannot turn to a dictionary or reread an author’s words to
discover their meaning.
A speaker’s meaning must be immediately comprehensible; it must be so clear that there is no chance
of misunderstanding. One can ensure this by using familiar words, by choosing concrete words over
abstract words, and by eliminating verbal clutter.
One of the biggest barriers to clear speech is using big, bloated words where short, sharp ones will do
the job better. This is especially true when it comes to technical language that may be familiar to the
speaker but not to the audience.
Other than being accurate and clear a speaker must always choose concrete words for his speech.
Concrete words refer to tangible objects such as people, places, and things
