Публичные выступления - это представление: сыграйте свою роль
Те, кто подходят к своему выступлению перед публикой или интервью прессе как к представлению, достигают наилучших результатов.
Публичное выступление требует физической и психологической энергии, сосредоточенности и размеренности. Чтобы обеспечить необходимую энергию и при этом выглядеть нормально, говорите энергичней и оживленней обычного, особенно, если находитесь от аудитории на удалении.
Жестикуляция и мимика добавляют энергичности вашим словам. Чтобы обеспечить успех выступления перед публикой или интервью прессе, требуются значительные физические усилия; наклонившись вперед и жестикулируя, вы сможете лучше поддержать энергетический уровень и компенсировать неблагоприятный эффект стрессовой ситуации.
Концентрация на аудитории поможет прояснить ваши мысли и сфокусировать внимание.
Размеренность особенно нужна для продолжительных речей и интервью. Есть важное различие между «выступлением» и «игрой», и аудитория сможет немедленно почувствовать это. Повышенная энергия и оживленность помогут безукоризненно произнести речь, а желание и стремление установить контакт с аудиторией - добиться ее одобрения, а может и поддержки, и не позволит считать ваше выступление простой игрой.

Key Point
People remember only a small part of what they see and even less of what they hear. Out of several thousand words in a speech, listeners may remember only a few. If the entire speech is published, most readers still won't remember much of what they read. Therefore, every speech should contain at least one memorable key point. In a debate or on a panel, the same rule applies. Be sure that the most important ideas are stated in a clear and memorable way. With interviews this is doubly important, because an interviewer from a publication may rely on notes, taking down only the highlights. If the interview is for a radio or television program, a large part of a what is recorded may not be used. People frequently complain that after they have given an hour-long interview, only a minute or two is actually broadcast.
Determining the key points requires a thorough study of the subject to be covered. Among all the ideas that might be pertinent, there are always a few that are vitally important. A good way to find them is to try to boil everything down into a few brief sentences. Each of these sentences should be a clear and positive statement covering • one of the main ideas.
Grooming
If the person to make an appearance is a celebrity or performer, the choice of what to wear won't be a problem. On shows being broadcast from Las Vegas or Hollywood, men commonly wear casual clothing. Women may wear flamboyant outfits that expose legs. This is part of the image they are trying to project, but these are "personality" shows whose sole purpose is to entertain.
To get a serious message across to an audience, there is a different set of rules. The speaker must dress conservatively and show or do nothing that might distract attention from the message.
Men should wear conservative suits. A sports jacket might be permissible in some cases, but it must not be loud. Violent colors won't do. Suits should be dark, if there is a pattern, it should be so subdued as to be almost invisible. White reflects light, so it should be avoided. Your speakers should oven avoid white shirts. Pale blue, gray, or tan with no noticeable pattern is best.
Flashy rings, large cuff links, and big belt buckles are unacceptable. If a man has a dark beard, a shave just before the appearance is a good idea. For any television appearance, the producer may suggest some makeup. This should not be resisted; even the nation's presidents have used it.
Women should dress conservatively in dresses or suits. Makeup should be the kind that is normally worn for business. Any jewelry that dangles, jingles, or flashes is taboo.
Another important point is that the speaker is "on stage" at all times. A surreptitious scratch or adjustment of clothing may be seen by some members of the audience or picked up by a TV camera. No speaker should assume that an inelegant gesture will not be seen.
