Body Language in Public Speaking: Let Go and Let Be Posted By : The Voice Lady

When I talk about color the life, the animation, the emotion we express in public speaking I am talking about more than what your voice is saying. Her only 'extracurricular' movement occurred when she had to change the slides, at which point she stopped talking, maneuvered the slide, proceeded to resume her frozen stance, and then continued speaking. If you want your audience's attention you must speak to them by not only displaying variety in your voice but also by speaking to them with the language of your body. If you remain perfectly still, clutching the lectern in a death grip, your audience will be aware of your obvious discomfort and will focus on your discomfort and not on your message. The Voice Lady Nancy Daniels offers private, corporate and group workshops in voice and presentation skills as well as Voicing It!
