Public speaking can be a frightening thing; it takes a lot of courage to get up in front of people. However, public speaking can provide you with many advantages, including helping you develop important business and social skills such as self-confidence, interpersonal skills, being more extroverted and having the ability to think on your feet and express yourself clearly. - Public speaking helps you develop the confidence you need to speak in front of others. This self-confidence can help you in many other areas of your life, from your career to your personal relationships.
- Though the naturally extroverted usually are more comfortable with public speaking, it can help make you more extroverted and more comfortable with strangers. Extroversion makes it easier for you to handle other interactions, from talking to clients to meeting your potential spouse.
- Competent public speaking can help your career. For example, a job interview is much like a public speech; being a good speaker can help convince your interviewer to hire you. When making business deals with other companies, being able to speak clearly and confidently comes in handy. And strong speaking skills can help you make your case that you deserve a promotion or a raise.
- No matter how reluctant you are, you almost certainly eventually will have to speak in public. Perhaps you will need to congratulate your friend at his wedding or thank your family members for giving you a going-away party. Having good public speaking skills is important in such situations.
