In this episode, we continue our master class about presentation skills. This week, I cover how to use your movement and gestures to reduce nervousness and create a more poised and confident appearance in front of a group.By the way, I have created a free downloadable guide for you. Just go to fearlesspresentations.com/audio-guide to access it.Gestures and Movement When You Deliver PresentationsThe best rule of thumb for gestures and movement while public speaking is simple—move when you need to. For instance, if you explain to your audience that there was a HUGE drop in revenue, but your body language doesn’t change, your delivery will be confusing. Your audience will likely think, “He said huge, but I guess it wasn’t a big deal.” This happens because your words and your movement are incongruent. A more appropriate gesture might be to hold your hand at about your eye level as you start the sentence. Then, as you get to the word “HUGE,” drop your hand down to your waist. Gestures Are Natural… Unless You Are Nervous When You SpeakBy the way, these movements and gestures are actually quite natural. (This is especially true when you tell stories.) That is unless you are worried about using appropriate gestures.If you haven't yet subscribed to the podcast, make sure to do that.

Most of those classes have at least a couple of seats available, but if you want a seat, make sure to register right away. Because we are only offering the classes in a few cities, they are selling out very early.To get a ticket, go to www.fearlesspresentations.com.
