Giving a speech? Winston Churchill gave good advice: Before giving a speech, go to the bathroom. If you are going to be nervous, you are likely going to have to run frequently to the bathroom. If you're at the front of the room, you may not be able to do that. #successtips

When presenting a speech, illustrate your points -- how it is now, how it will or could be -- with a story so vivid that the audience can "see" it. #frippvt #dailyquote #successtips

Criticism: Turning Gripes into Growth No one enjoys being criticized. Yet, if you want to succeed, you have to overcome all your natural instincts and actively seek out feedback, good and bad. #presentationtips #salespresentations #careeradvice

As an exercise, I would practice reading your speech out loud. Pause for one second at a comma, two seconds at the end of a sentence, and three seconds after a paragraph. This is to develop the habit of pausing in your talk in the right places. Then breathe and smile! #succeed

Q: How can you slow yourself down when you're speaking too fast in a presentation? A: Being aware of speaking too fast, speaking too slowly, or speaking in a monotone is a great start. You can solve any problem if you can define it. #successtips #keytosuccess #frippvt

Fripp’s Tips: Never lose the powerful personal touch! Technology should serve you and your message, not the other way around. Use it as it was designed to be used -- to enhance your message, not to eclipse it. #frippvt #presentationskills #keytosuccess

Fripp’s Tips: Don't let your managers and leaders fall into the trap of using technology as a substitute for communicating directly with their audience. The audience wants to see their leaders more than glossy graphics. #publicspeakingskills #customercare #businessgrowth

Fripp’s Tips: Examine each word in your speech, looking for the emotion. Every word is not equally important. The audience will get your message based on the inflection and emphasis you place on key words and phrases. #successtips #keytosuccess #publicspeakingskills

Fripp’s Tips: I urge you not to stand behind the lectern throughout your entire talk. It puts a barrier between you and the audience, and they feel it. #presentationskills #keynotespeaker #stagepresence

Powerful presentations happen when you check out the room in advance and work to connect with the audience while speaking. #frippvt #dailyquote #publicspeakingskills

You may speak powerfully, but no one will be able to make sense of your presentation unless it is well organized. #frippvt #dailyquote #presentationskills

What do the Pentagon, corporate CEOs, and Patricia Fripp have in common? We all deplore the current trend toward replacing solid presentation content with flashy audio/video effects. #keynotespeaker #millionairemindset
