For many, the immediate goal is simple – survival. The idea of standing in front of an audience, even virtually, is daunting. The aim? Get through it without embarrassment—without making a total utter fool of yourself!

It's an understandable sentiment but intrinsically focused on the self, not the audience.

Then, there's the allure of financial gain. With its tantalizing rumours of hefty paychecks earned by the likes of Scott Galloway or Michelle Obama, the conference circuit tempts many. But when the primary driver is the paycheck, not the impact, we must question the depth and authenticity of such ambitions.

Others see public speaking as a tool – a means to enhance their personal brand, to sell more products, win pitches, or secure funding. It's strategic, yes, but does it transcend beyond mere self-interest?

Now, let's turn the mirror towards ourselves. What motivates you? Is your journey marked by a selfish desire, or are you fueled by a story that yearns to be told, one that is urgent, important, bursting to be told and can genuinely impact others?


Imagine the possibilities when your focus shifts from surviving to thriving, from self to audience. Consider the profound difference you can make when your presentations aren't just about looking good in front of peers or bosses but about enriching the lives of your listeners and your customers.


Each of us has a unique story, a message that can resonate and inspire. It's about finding that narrative within you – one that's not just heard but felt and remembered.

In becoming a compelling presenter, challenge yourself to look beyond the surface. It's not just about honing skills; it's about nurturing a purpose that extends beyond you. It's about taking tiny steps towards mastering the story the audience needs to hear. It's about having a positive impact on your audience.

That's why you should want to get better at presenting.
