Public speaking – does that sound scary to you or like something you always wanted to try out? Going in front of an audience and give a speech or presentation?
Have you ever heard about the Toastmasters International organization?
Toastmasters International is an organization for public speaking and leadership. Thousands of Toastmasters club exist world-wide where people gather together regularly to practice giving speeches, moderating, evaluating and improvisation.
I am myself a member of the English-speaking Toastmasters club ‘Stadi Talkers’ in Helsinki and have interviewed my fellow club member Lauri Lehmusvirta, who has already over 7 years of experience in public speaking. Lauri is also a member of JCI and coaches people in having a debate and giving presentations.
In this first part of the interview you will learn
How it shapes your personality to try out different profession
What mental challenges are normal when you go on a stage the first time
How to easily bring humour into your speech
In the second part of the interview (episode #66) you will then hear more about how to fight limiting beliefs when being on a stage and what you can do yourself to become better in speaking in front of others.
The podcast ‘Spotlight your TRUE self’ is based on three pillars:
Self-confidence & self-esteem
Managing your emotions
Concrete communication techniques based on NLP
And in each episode, you will hear about one of them.
