I’m just no good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again. ” Cheer up! It doesn’t have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making.

Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness. Just remember: be prepared.
