Can introverts go for public speaking?

It is a question that often crosses people’s mind that an introvert might not be able to make presentations or go for a career that requires public speaking.

But let me tell you, this doubt is totally false. Nothing is impossible for the one who practices and has faith in oneself.
There are so many real-life examples of people who have followed their passion and beaten the odds!

One of them was Earl Boykins-

Had Earl Boykins thought, that because of his short height he cannot play basketball, he would never have been at the place where he is today -
a renowned basketball player with a height of 5 feet, 5 inches where the average height of NBA players goes to 6 feet, 7 inches!!  IMAGINE!

According to the dictionary, “introvert” can be defined as a person who is slow to reveal emotion or opinion.

This does not mean that an introvert is reluctant to reveal or share anything, nor does this mean that they fear public!!

It is just that they are very calculative in terms of what to say and what not to say.

Let me quote a story here,

I had one of my faculties during my college who had been a corporate HR and later came into academics. An HR professional has to be very good with interpersonal skills. She had a successful career as an HR, won few awards too, later she changed her path- came to the profession of teaching.

Now, What is teaching?

Addressing so many young and dynamic crowd, thinking on your toes, answering to their questions and creating positive relationships around!

She was excellent in her work.

And, guess what- She was an introvert! Yes!

So, friends, being an introvert does not mean that they cannot speak or they don’t have the talent to speak in public,

It’s just that they hesitate and sometimes become reluctant to express, they become confuse about whether to express or not!

Friends, most importantly, being an extrovert or an introvert is a choice, I believe!

It is made because of your-

• ·       Experiences

• ·       Surrounding people

• ·       Expectations

• ·       Circumstances

• ·       Will too!

Now, coming to reasons and tips too!

Tips for introvert to become an expert in Public speaking

# TIP No. 1

You might not want to gel up with people, but that’s your personal life.

Don’t mix it with your professional one!

Remember my teaching example in the beginning?

# TIP No. 2

If you have decided to go for a public speaking event, research on the topic well, try to find out your audience type as well.

Look, whether your audience will be a group of students, faculties, corporate people or your own colleagues.

Prepare on the topic line.

Anticipate the questions that can come from your audience.

# TIP No. 3

 

Become an expert in Public speaking

Remember, nobody can force you

It is completely your choice of how much you want to speak, what topics to cover and what not to cover.

# TIP No.4

The only difference between your public speaking and an extrovert’s public speaking is that-

• Extroverts will not think much about speaking about every angle of the topic, even if it covers their personal life.

• But introverts will be conscious about what should they share and what not to.

So, it is better to categorize some of the incidences of your real life that you really would like to share in front of the audience, because it is seen that when a speaker shares some of his personal experiences, he builds a personal connection with the audience faster and also creates a stronger impact on the topic.

So, try working on it! 

Being an introvert, you will master public speaking

# TIP No. 5

Rehearse, relax and Smile

You have to remember that a good outcome can come out of practice. Even established public speakers spend their day and night in improving their speech so that it looks attractive in front of the public.

Before going on to the stage, just forget you are an introvert or extrovert, just be yourself and be clear with your thoughts.

Connect with your audience, look at them with confidence and Smile!

This will be the moment where you will realize you have achieved it, after that the journey will be all yours!

Being an introvert, don't hate public speaking

Remember, you are an introvert by nature and that should be a choice in your personal life.

But when it comes to professionalism, practice is what makes you perfect and then nobody can guess whether you are an introvert or an extrovert!
