HOW TO BECOME A SUCCESSFUL PUBLIC SPEAKER!
This will guide a professional speaker or one who want to become a professional speaker about
what are the basic and important questions he/she has to answer in any presentation. By the
time you finish reading this article, you will know what and what not to speak in a presentation.
Are you a professional speaker? What do you think is important when you do a presentation?
Your presentation should actually present a solution to the audience, which will benefit them.
The basic six questions, which you definitely have to answer are who, what, when, where, why
and how about the topic you are presenting. If you divide your presentation into these six parts,
you definitely can give an excellent presentation. Let me detail you about the questions that you
need to address in a presentation one after the other.
1. Who - You should understand who your target audience are, what they like, their concerns,
etc. You should also see whether your audience has some preconceived notions about the
subject you are going to present to. You should address or answer the "who" of the topic you
are presenting to as this will help the audience to relate themselves with the topic. This will
make them feel that you are talking to them directly and will start to listen and actively
participate in your presentation.
2. What - You should be clear about the message you wish to communicate to your audience.
You should address their issues and provide solutions to it. Backbone or the spine of any
presentation is "what," that is, the main idea of your speech.
3. When - It is yet another important question, which you must address in a presentation.
"When" should be stressed in such a way that audience take some action once they are finished
listening to your presentation, which may include signing up for a course.
4. Where - "Where" should give a location where the audience can turn up to solutions for their
issues. "Where" denotes the path or direction. Few commonly used "where" statements would
include "across the nation", "in the IT industry", "colleges in Los Angeles", etc.
5. Why - This part should explain "why" the audience should take the action you have just
mentioned. Your presentation should motivate them to take a particular action that you have just
said a few minutes or hours ago. You should inspire as well as motivate your audience.
6. How - Last but not the least is "how" in a presentation. So far in your presentation, you have
spoken about who, what, when, where, why. It is now the appropriate time to tell your audience
how they go about taking a particular action. This is where you will have to explain the process
for taking a particular action. You can call it as the educating and learning phase. You will have
to detail out step-by-step instructions for the process that was explained.
To become a professional speaker who is trustworthy and reliable, it is essential that you
incorporate these questions and address the concerns of the audience in your presentation.
When you gather the bits and pieces of all these questions, you definitely can give an
inspirational presentation.
