May 15, 2008 – Should You Picture Your Audience Naked?
Public Speaking Expert Jess Todtfeld, Co-Author of “Media Training A to Z”, says:
NEVER NEVER NEVER.
Jess Todtfeld can say:
-The idea behind this is that you will somehow be less nervous if you feel superior to the audience.
-This is terrible advice
-You SHOULD be nervous.
-You SHOULD be focused on the audience and their needs.
-You SHOULD be nervous that your presentation is boring and only works as a sleep aid
-That energy needs to be focused connecting with the audience.
-The audience doesn’t really care about you. They want to be entertained and informed.
-If you freeze, you need to fall back on your speaking tools.
-Picturing an audience naked or in their underwear is easier said than done. It takes work you shouldn’t be doing while trying to speak. Plus, have you seen most people???
