Listen "How to deal with PRESENTATION NERVES"

Episode Synopsis


You are the presenter, and the initiator and alchemist of the energy in the room.
 
*BOOK COACHING:* https://shop.beacons.ai/niu.views/EnergyCoachingwithArielNiu  Improve your social presence, delivery, interactions and influences on others.
 
*Study Notes*
- Break the fourth wall with the audience before the presentation (casual chitchat).
- Have a confident base that is sustainable - honed authenticity with nonchalance.
- Honed authenticity = 'being real with a secret' kind of energy.
- Nonchalance = I am aware of it all and it's always all good.
- It's ok to ask for context, we need context to give thorough, useful responses. E.g. 'Interesting, tell me more about x' 'I think what you are trying to say is this, am I following correctly?' 'Give me more details on this aspect'
- Approach unexpected questions with curiousity, see them as opportunities.
- Hone in on the individual asking the question, treat it like a conversation.
- Approach follow-ups with confidence and excitement if necessary. E.g. 'I'm excited to add this to my research, I'll have it as a point in our follow-up email.'
- Avoid inferiority (shame/victimizing) or superiority (masking confidence) with mistakes, I like to admit to it in the moment with nonchalance and get right back into it. E.g. 'Ok, I just made up that word, what I meant is this :)'
- Catch the initial anxiety, breathe and relax into lightness and nonchalance.
- Curiousity translates into confidence, which translates into the ability to connect the dots.
- It's within our control whether we approach unexpected moments with anxiety/shame/rigidness or curiousity/nonchalance/lightness, and that energy will be felt by all.
