Public Speaking
An example of this will be the various class presentations that you need to do over the course of the semester and the grading criteria will almost certainly have an element of "clarity of delivery" in it. One of the possible reasons is that although they are highly intelligent and have written very useful information, they just cannot seem to put through to people what they are thinking about due to their lack of ability to communicate to a large group of people using public speaking techniques.

By picking up a good public speaking skill, you will have an edge over others who don't.

Embarrassment
I think one of the reasons why people fear public speaking so much is because they could be embarrassed. If you embarrass yourself there everyone in the audience is going to notice it. Back in January of this year, I attended a youth workers conference in Indianapolis, IN. The two presenters were a husband and wife team largely known in the youth workers field. I'm not sure how accurate that is or what tests prove that. One by one, we simply walked to the podium and introduced ourselves as we were being recorded by video. They encouraged us to ignore the bright light.

But, during video playback we were told that no audio would be played. The body language of many told how the light did distract them. Some consciously or unconsciously raised their hand to shield their eyes from the light.

A good amount of people used hand gestures during their greeting. A majority of people seemed unanimated, moving their lips but not their head or eyes.

When it was my turn, I was expecting a lot more than what the others presented. I was deeply disappointed at myself and wondered how many times I stood in front of people thinking I was inspirational but in reality the opposite.

While looking at the camera and audience, he gestured with his head a hello by nodding his head up quickly. Everyone laughed when he did that because it truly stood out from everyone else.

Another long lasting principal I remember from the workshop, because I wrote it down of course; is that we remember the mannerisms of a speaker more than their speech. Public speaking is simply the art of speaking in public.

Please notice that I wrote some words in uppercase.

Dionysius of ancient Rome said "make sure your speech is better than silence or be silent."

Every speech should have an introduction, a body and a conclusion. So let's go over the four points again:
