PUBLIC SPEAKING

PUBLIC SPEAKING

Candidates with strong public speaking skills are in demand for the many occupations that require the ability to speak to a group. Public speaking is seldom, if ever an entire job description, but dynamic and well-prepared speakers are highly valued by employers and tend to earn leadership positions and important client contact roles. 

Anyone whose job involves communicating, teaching, or persuading will do a better job if they have public speaking skills.

Public speaking is a soft skill that requires excellent communication skills, enthusiasm, and the ability to engage with an audience. Public speakers make presentations to a group.

Presentations range from speaking to a small group of employees to presenting to a large audience at a national conference or event. The same skill set and ability to be comfortable speaking in public are required regardless of the size of the group.

When you want to highlight your public speaking skills in your cover letter, resume, or even during an interview, be sure to go beyond stating that you have "public speaking skills." Go into detail about which aspects of public speaking you are good at, and provide specific examples of your skills and expertise.

Have a Happy and Learning Day
