Captivating Your Audience

Welcome to PHD (Positivity Hack Delivered) Episode 003 by Beata Young with guest Eithne Treanor. Find yourself in a cold sweat when standing in front of an audience? You're not alone. According to a Chapman University survey, public speaking remains one of the top fears. Public speaking is a difficult process and skill for many to master. Even the most polished speakers deal with nerves. If you're a CEO or a budding entrepreneur, lacking confidence in your speech-giving abilities could seriously hurt your business. Whether you're addressing a small group of investors or hundreds of people, if you can't captivate an audience, you could miss out on some serious career-building opportunities. The same rule applies when you’re giving a webinar or online presentation where your audience only hears your voice. In this Livestream PHD- Positivity Hack Delivered was joined by a trained television journalist in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, and Russia. In her earlier career, Eithne worked as an international television journalist for ABC News, Sky News, BBC World, and CNBC Europe and was instrumental in the launch of Bloomberg TV. We focused on how to speak to the online audience with confidence and be authentic.
