演讲时掌握这几个技巧更能打动人

 
Glossophobia — better known as a fear of public speaking — affects 74% of people, according to a National Institute of Mental Health survey. So it's no surprise the very thought of addressing large crowds causes so much stress, angst, and discomfort.
 
据美国心理健康研究所称，公众演讲恐惧症（或害怕公开演讲）影响到74%的人。所以，很多人都有很多紧张、焦虑和焦虑，这并不奇怪。
 
In the past three decades, I've given more than 1,200 presentations to upward of a million people. Many say the ability to speak before large crowds is innate, but I'm not sure that's true.
 
在过去的30年，我给10万人做过1200多次演讲。许多人说在大量人群前演讲的能力是天生的，但我不能同意。
 
I didn't do much public speaking in the first 20 years of my life. Our school didn't encourage students to speak in front of crowds, so I graduated from high school and started university thinking I didn't possess the tools to connect with large audiences.
 
直到我20岁时，我才开始公开演讲。我们学校不鼓励学生在众人面前讲话，所以当我高中毕业并开始上大学时，我没有足够好的手段与大批听众交流。
 
Like so many other things in life — including business acumen — speaking skills can betaught, enhanced, and perfected.
就像生活中的许多事（包括商业头脑），演讲技能可以通过后天学习、提高、巩固。
Poor lines of communication or a bad presentation can lead to lost opportunities. Conversely, great public speaking skills can land you a new job or client, motivate your team, and even turn a bad situation around.
沟通不畅或缺乏说话技巧会导致你失去机会。相反，良好的公共演讲技巧可以帮助你找到新工作或结识新客户，激励团队，甚至扭转局面。
 
Speak with purpose in the workplace
在工作场所带着目的演讲
In honing my public speaking skills, I've also significantly improved how I interact with my colleagues back in the office, mainly using these five tactics:
在磨练演讲技巧时，我也极大地提升了自己与同事之间相互沟通的技巧，主要用以下五种策略：
1. Map out the message
1. 设计好要传输的信息
Think through what you want to say and identify the two or three key messages you want listeners to retain. Then, put those into a logical sequence. Keep the message condensed and easily understandable. The way to get a message across at work is to narrow it as much as possible. The more focused it is, the better employees will grasp it.
想想你要说什么，然后决定你想让听众记住的两到三个要点。然后，使信息的逻辑。使信息简洁易懂。在工作中交流信息的方法是最小化信息。焦点越集中，员工就越容易理解。
 
Your primary objective is to inform and educate the audience; to do this, focus on the content, but don't get too hung up on the delivery.
你的主要目标是告诉和教育听众做到这一点，专注于你的内容，不要太在意你说话的方式。
 
Craft agendas for all presentations, be they companywide announcements or one-on-one chats with colleagues. Charting a direction for your workplace communication ensures that your message will land. Create a road map for your talk by planning all the necessary stops along the way. It's that simple.
为公司内部的所有演讲做准备，发表声明，或与同事沟通。确立办公室沟通的方向，确保信息的有效落地。让你的演讲和计划的所有细节做概述。这很简单。
 
2. Speak from the heart
2. 发自内心地演讲
Take possession of the room. People are giving you their time, so make it worth their while. It isn't enough just to know what you're talking about: You have to believe in it. Don't say "I wasn't planning on talking with you today" or that you didn't have time to prepare. Be humble, sincere, and controlled in your approach.
 
把控全场。人们给你时间，你要让他们感受到价值。仅仅知道你在说什么是不够的：你必须相信它。不要说“我没有打算今天谈话”或者没有时间准备。讲话时要谦虚、真诚、克制。
 
Don't conduct a word-by-word recitation of your speech. Connect with your audience through constant eye contact and vocal modulation that allows your emotion, commitment, and determination to naturally shine.
不要把你的演讲当作逐字背诵。通过不断的目光接触和调整你的声音给听众，它会让你的情感、承诺和决心自然地流动。
 
Delivering a new officewide initiative with this type of fervor, for example, keys employees in to the fact that what you're saying needs to be retained.
把这种热情用在办公场所，比如，重要员工所说的话需要被保留。
3. Use visuals
3. 运用视觉化表达
Never underestimate the value of showing visual elements that reinforce your points. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, people remember 65% of information they retain through a combination of visual and oral communication.
永远不要低估使用视觉元素增强表达能力的价值。根据美国劳工部的数据，人们通过视觉和语言交流记住了65%的信息。
 
Display the graphs, videos, and images that best convey your message. Visuals bring your words to life and improve the chances that your message will be committed to memory.
图表、视频和图片可以传输你想表达的信息。形象化能使你的语言更生动，使你的信息更令人难忘。
 
4. Be prepared
4. 充分准备
I was very nervous the first time I spoke in front of a crowd. I felt unprepared and overwhelmed with the audience's perception of me and my speech. Though my recollection of the talk itself is sketchy, one impression sticks with me: I never wanted to feel that vulnerable in front of an audience again.
我第一次在公共场合讲话时，我非常紧张。听众对我和演讲的理解使我措手不及。虽然我对演讲本身并不清楚，但有一件事给我留下了深刻印象：我再也不想在观众面前这么脆弱。
 
Never wing it. Develop your own style, and don't try to copy someone else's. Whether you're discussing a department overhaul, a new hire, or a change in company policy, know what you're talking about. Collect any and all relevant information and come in prepared. If you show confidence, your audience will feel it, too.
永远别临场发挥。形成自己的风格，别试图模仿别人。无论你是在讨论部门改革、新员工，还是公司政策变化，都要知道自己在说什么。收集所有相关信息，充分准备。如果你表现出自信，你的听众也会这么觉得。
5. Zone in
5. 融入其中
You've prepared the talk — now it's time to prepare the speaker. Don't stay out late the night before, drink too much, or eat unfamiliar foods. A good night's rest is invaluable and will transfer good energy into the presentation.
你已经准备好了演讲，现在是时候准备作为一个演讲者了。前一天晚上别在外面待到太晚，别喝多，也别吃陌生食品。晚上好好休息是很有必要的，会让你在演讲时精力充沛。
Dress appropriately, get to the venue on time, and ease into the surroundings. Feel comfortable with the stage, the room, and the audience. In the final hour before your talk, don't change a thing.
穿着得体，准时到达会场，轻松融入周围环境。熟悉舞台、房间以及听众。在你演讲之前，不要再改变任何内容。
Public speaking isn't difficult. It's uncomfortable the first few times, because people are looking at you, listening to you, and hoping to learn something from you. You don't want to let them down, so don't. Business is all about having an idea and communicating your vision, so go ahead. Inform them, entertain them, and fill the room with your energy, passion, and presence.
 
公共演讲不太难。开始几次会很不舒服，因为人们在看你，听你，希望从你身上学到一些东西。你不想让他们失望，所以不要让他们失望。商业说它是关于一个想法和与人们交流你的愿景，所以继续吧。告诉他们，接受他们，用你的能量、热情和存在填满这个房间。
