Many people dread the prospect of having to speak in front of an audience. Others have the urge to do so but are mystified as to how to go about it, so they stand down and let the opportunities go by. The anxiety becomes even more acute when we realize that speaking in public is increasingly called for, whether it is sales presentations, PowerPoint presentations in meetings, webinars, conferences, and more. It is not a new problem, but it remains a stumbling block for many. Dale Carnegie realized this a little over a hundred years ago and decided to do something about it. After taking acting lessons and struggling to find work as an actor, he gave lessons in the art of public speaking at YMCA in New York which became quite successful. He joined forces with Joseph Berg Esenwein, a writer and editor, to formulate his principles in The Art of Public Speaking. First published in 1915, the book has been used by millions to improve their communication skills and remains relevant and effective today. It covers every side of the issue: confidence, emphasis, pitch, pace, pause, power, inflection, force, feeling, fluency, articulation, gesture, and the many ways of influencing an audience. Numerous examples are provided for study and practice. So, if you are stuck, scared, or just want to do better, listen up and learn how to get your audiences to do the same!
