The Art of Public Speaking

More about the book

Overcoming self-consciousness and fear in public speaking is addressed through the principle of practice. The authors suggest that frequent exposure to speaking before audiences builds confidence, akin to how practice in swimming fosters ease in water. They emphasize the importance of understanding effective speaking qualities, acquiring them, and identifying bad speech habits. This comprehensive guide, rooted in Dale Carnegie's expertise in public speaking and personality development, provides aspiring speakers with the tools needed to improve their skills and overcome anxiety.
