Public Speaking with Confidence: How to Overcome Anxiety and Deliver Unforgettable Presentations by Philipp Humm

ABOUT THE BOOK:

You’ve probably tried to speak in public a few times before. Maybe your heart started racing, you had difficulty breathing, or you forgot what you wanted to say. You've tried a few different strategies, but nothing has worked. It sucks, right?

Philipp Humm knows the struggle you’re going through right now.

For years, speaking in public was the single thing he was most afraid of.

Until he discovered the techniques you’re about to learn.

In this book, you’ll master the techniques that have helped him overcome his fear of public speaking and feel excited to speak in public.

They are the same techniques he used to prepare for his TEDx talk, which he’s taught in his workshops with companies including Google, Oracle, ASICS, Visa, Salesforce, Metlife, and EON.

Some of the exercises are a bit unconventional. Some are weird. But they’re also the most effective in helping you feel confident about speaking in public.

In this step-by-step guide, you’ll discover how to:

  • Give fewer f*cks about what other people think of you
  • Structure your presentations following an effective 9-step process
  • Turn any boring speech into a captivating performance
  • Rehearse your presentation like a professional actor
  • Get yourself into the zone with a powerful 10-minute warm-up routine

The techniques you’re about to learn have changed Philipp Humms’ life, and they’ve turned thousands of his clients into charismatic speakers.

They will help you:

  • Get promoted faster
  • Become the trusted expert in your industry
  • Close more deals
  • Teach and mentor others

Be the most interesting person to talk to, overcome your anxiety, and feel excited to speak in public!
