Public speaking is a skill that when mastered can lead to incredible changes and results both in your business and in your personal life.

The challenge is that there is a common myth that public speaking is difficult and something that only a certain few can do. This couldn't be further from the truth.
By participating in public speaking lessons, standing up and presenting to an audience of thousands, is something that can easily be taught.

Here are the most common mistakes I usually spot when I see a bad public speaker.

1)      Body position. Just about every single poor speaker I have seen has had bad body position. They will stand up slouched over their pedestal, or continually shifting around. This distracts the audience and conveys a message that you are not comfortable. As a result the audience will not feel comfortable with you.

2)      Eye contact-Again one of the common errors I see in poor orators. They continually look at the floor or even worse at their own handbook. This leads to a lack of communication between them and the audience.

3)      Speech Notes-Just about every single poor speaker I have ever seen makes one common mistake. They fail to learn their speech which means they continually refer to their key notes or handbook. What they need to do is be able to occasionally refer to their key cards and interact with their audience on a more personal level.

These are the 3 most common mistakes that every single person makes when they deliver a poor presentation to an audience. They may sound extremely simple, but I'm willing to bet that if you sit down now and think of a poor speech that you witnessed (or even delivered), the speaker contained these 3 traits. The problem is that these mistakes will almost always lead to a poor presentation which in turn could cost you money. How does this cost you money? Well you will either lose clients, or you will fail to be promoted at the same rate as your colleagues who can present themselves in a professional manner. They will be the ones that your boss promotes to the positions of importance, because he will want people who can deal with his clients and his staff in those vital positions.
