If you were to make a speech in an assembly and you are absolutely thunderstruck, or you are tensed and ramble on. In times like that, be of clear mind and think of what subject matter you wish to get across. Organize and have definite points on how well you could enlighten others, without coming out as rambling.
Your communication should be lucid and when you have too much to say or you are in doubt of a particular subject, your speech will obviously get muddled up and you may come out as someone having a hard time putting words into what you want to say.
I have faced a similar situation and it is then I realised the need for effective communication and I followed the steps given to get over my shyness and shortfall in communication.Communication is one and only effective part in our life which aid us to share what we feel and to not able to communicate properly is a huge blow. In any case, it is not difficult to master the art of communication, all you need have is self-confidence and with a couple of basic communication skills at hand, you could excel in any form of speech, debate and just about anything.
Here is how prepared you should be when making a speech, trust me it works, as it did for countless others and me:
List Three Main Points: If you are an avid fan of the topic given to you, or you have absolutely no clue whatsoever the topic is about, don’t get baffled. Instead of just going on and on about it, you could just dot down the three chief points and make a speech about it, which I found rather helpful when I faced such a situation.
Enunciate Each Word: Take time to enunciate each word in your speech, so that the listeners will be able to understand you and moreover, speak in such a way that it is captivating. You may not been as eloquent as you would think but it is something you could learn on the go however there is nothing wrong in enunciating each and every word, that way you will learn before you could even say ‘Sudoku’.
Hand Gestures: you might think what your hand gesture got to do with speaking effectively, but that’s where you go wrong because your hand gestures convey your messages quite clearly. Hand gesticulations are an important part of communications skills. It conveys a positive message and a wrong hand gesture could end up sending the wrong message.
