AT SOME POINT,
EVERY LEADER WILL TAKE THE MICROPHONE.
ARE YOU READY?
Being able to stand up and speak calmly and comfortably and clearly will also set you apart as a leader – even if you are only speaking for a few minutes. People who can stand up and speak in front of others look like leaders.
And the great thing is anyone can improve their speaking ability. Speaking is a complex skill to be developed just like any other. You have already done the hard part; you’ve already learned how to stand and you have already learned how to speak. Building from there is easy compared to the monumental achievements you have already made!
Many people have this idea that if you are going to stand and speak in front of other people then you need to be a natural speaker - but there is no such thing as a “natural speaker.” Building your speaking skills is an area that you can choose to develop a lot or a little. It’s up to you!
Developing your speaking is far more skill than natural talent. It’s far more skill than natural confidence.
And it’s far more skill than personality. With practice and preparation, you can be fun and likable, appear very comfortable and at home in front of an audience and be very thought provoking and persuasive.
John Maxwell’s ability to communicate is second to none. And exactly the same skills, techniques and principles that he has discovered, developed and honed over more than 50 years of diligent application will also help you significantly improve your powers of communication
Whether you are a Professional Speaker, a complete beginner looking to do your first reluctant presentation - or somewhere in between, modeling John Maxwell’s approach to speaking and communicating will make a dramatic difference to your effectiveness.
The same principles that the world’s best communicators use will work for the complete novice too. They will work for you. You will need to put in a little effort of course, but if you do you will be richly rewarded.
