An email from a retired fireman who, because of his fear, was replaced by his boss during his first speech.
Fred,
The speeches went so well in all four departments, that my boss said it was a miracle. Many people who I know in the two years I've worked for the firm congratulated me saying they never knew I was such a good speaker. I followed everything we practiced and it went off beautifully. Thank you so much. If you can make a speaker out of me, you can make a speaker out of anybody.

Overcome Your Fear of Public Speaking
Convenient Manhattan Location
Fear of public speaking is common. It is a major obstacle to promotion and success in many professional positions. However, you can overcome your fear of public speaking and become an effective and powerful public speaker.
We tend to fear what we don't know. As your public speaking coach, I will take you step-by-step through a process that demystifies good public speaking. I will show you the nuts and bolts of public speaking. Then I will teach you how to put them together for powerful, effective presentations. Your confidence will soar!
We will also reduce or eliminate your fear of public speaking through the use of:
- Breathing—to relax frazzled nerves, steady a shaky voice and improve resonance, all of which will give you a commanding presence
- Visualization—similar to what pro-athletes do to improve their focus and performance
- Body Awareness—having the right stance to convey your message
