discover2 Public Speaking Mistakes
that could be Killing your Connection
with Your Audience
Public Speaking Mistake #1 Telling the Audience
About Themselves
Speakers sometimes say things such
as: “We all let fear overcome us and kill our dreams”
This may cause some audience members to
think: “I don’t! You don’t even know
anything about my life!”
Instead, ask a question:
“Have you ever fear get in the way of your dream?”
By asking audience members, you get them to reflect on
their lives which makes your speech valuable
to your audience.
Furthermore, since you’re not telling your audience
members about their lives, they’re more likely to accept your message
because you’re not thrusting it upon them.
Next time, don’t tell audience members about themselves. Instead, ask them a rhetorical question
Public Speaking Mistake #2 Over-
Generalizing
Speakers sometimes over-generalize. They
say things such as “always”, “never”,
“everyone”
For example, I’ve heard a speaker say:
“The reason for the high divorce rate is because no-
one bothers to learn the fundamentals of a loving
relationship”
That turned me off because my mind immediately
reacted with, “That’s not true! I read
books, attend workshops and seminars on how to
have a good relationship!”.
Next time, don’t over-generalize. Instead, say
something like:“Too often, divorces occur
because couples don’t receive training on the art
of marriage”
