Cultivating a distinctive speaking style as a beginner in motivational speaking starts with finding your unique voice. This involves understanding your strengths, experiences, and perspectives to create an authentic and engaging presentation style. Begin by reflecting on what motivates you and your core message. For example, if you have overcome significant personal challenges, use your story to connect emotionally with your audience. Practice delivering speeches with various tones, tempos, and emphases to discover what feels natural and resonates with listeners. Record your practice sessions and seek feedback to refine your delivery. Over time, this process will help you develop a unique speaking style that is both impactful and memorable.

One piece of short form content you create on socials daily for 365 days is what Eric Thayne did. He explained this when I saw him speak at Funnel Hacking Live in 2023. It seemed like he had really found his voice when he spoke so I decided to try it myself. I've been doing this and it's been a solid tactic to find my voice so far.

Speaking from passion and purpose combines your destination with your navigation devices. When your passion fuels you and your navigation directs you, every stop along the way get your closer to your arrival. The short: Start speaking with passion and purpose and you will arrive at the appointed time. Each time you take off and arrive, the greater your skills improve along with the confidence needed to continue the journey. There will be stops that are planned and there will be stops that are unplanned. The key is to allow passion and purpose to never depart. For as long as you have these two in combination, it is for certain that your vehicle of motivation will deliver you time and time again. This is your proof of originality.

Whenever I speak I start with the end in mind. I figure out the overall, general objectives of my speech: What do I want my audience to know, grasp or understand by the time I'm done? Then I map out the individual, bite sized pieces within my speech that will help them to get to the broad goal. What I say and do will change according to the audience and topic: - I may tell stories. - Play games. - Use music. No matter the methods used, I connect with my audience and show my own humanity and vulnerability. Once you know your end goal, the sky's the limit on how you can lead your audience there.

Tell them what you are going to tell them. Tell them. Then tell them what you told them. Almost all audiences have wondering minds; this was not true if Robin Williams was on stage. We are not Robing Williams so we must do something to keep their attention. Use anecdotes, make yourself the butt of the joke, how did you overcome. Like the Marines, improvise, adapt , overcome. If you are not quick on your feet, public speaking may be become a real challenge. It;s not stand up, you should not be heckled. You will be answering questions and they often come from places and connections you never thought of. I hate when that happens, it happens. You cannot rehearse enough. Rehearse with someone that will ask hard questions. Rehearse again again.

2. Craft Your Message: Clarify your core message. What do you want your audience to take away? Develop a compelling narrative that resonates with your listeners. Use relatable stories and examples.

A leader that I admire once said, “Simplicity is the highest form of sophistication!” Think about the message in the form of a movie highlight reel - keep the message clear , concise and tailored to audience.

It’s essential to start by understanding the event's goals. Find out what the organisers want to achieve and who will be attending. The answers will help you tailor your message effectively. Next, think about what you want to convey. Consider how you want to capture the audience's attention right from the start. It doesn’t always have to be the beginning of your story; it could be a powerful pain point that resonates with them. Then, plan your ending. What do you want the audience to take away from your message? This will help you shape the conclusion to leave a lasting impact. In the middle, include points that explain and support your message. These points should connect the beginning to the end, creating a cohesive narrative.

A key element to audience engagement is PRESENCE! Yes, there are many tools that one must have in the bag but the right tool might require in the moment selection, despite our best planning efforts! So as a speaker be flexible and learn to read the audience and connect with the energy in the room and be present enough to flex, use the appropriate engagement tool to engage the audience - every audience is different so be present with the one you are speaking to on today!

Attention! You have to make sure that your audience are definitely into you and your message for it to flow nicely. Make that a priority.

I love engaging my audience. It's the best way for them to learn. And it helps me to connect with them. ✅ I ask questions. ✅ Get volunteers. ✅ Play games. ✅ Tell stories. I also use cues from their reactions and enthusiasm to guide me on transitions and how long to engage in a particular activity.

3. Engage Your Audience: Connect with your audience emotionally. Ask questions, share relatable experiences, and maintain eye contact. Active engagement keeps your listeners attentive and interested.

The best speakers have the ability to pull their audience in by the stories they share and the way they share them. In working with speakers for over 20 years it is clear that there are many ways to engage your audience. Regardless of your approach it will generally fall into one of two categories: direct or indirect. Directly engaging your audience involves a series of questions and activities that you ask them to do during your keynote. This can be asking for responses or having them do something with a partner that gets them talking and sharing. Indirectly engaging an audience involves the use of stories, strategic pauses and emotive language to connect with them on an deeper emotional level. Experts use this masterful technique.

4. Utilize Body Language: Nonverbal cues matter! Stand tall, use expressive gestures, and vary your tone. Your body language should reinforce your message and convey confidence.

Pace, body language, tone of voice, and volume of voice and pace are all part of how you show up on stage. With a podium and mike? Just a mike in your hand, a Garth Brooks style over the head tiny mike? No mike, no podium, no stage? just you and 6 other folks around a long table waiting for you new proposal? First know the environment you will be in. Tailor your speaking to the room, not just the words, volume and tone, the physical room is how you choose volume. All of which need to be switched around regularly. No exceptions, every conversation is a sales conversation and every public speaking opportunity is a sales opportunity. Can you whittle you message down to a simple declarative sentence? Why not? KISS. Clarity Clarity Clarity

5. Develop Your Peace: Prioritize self-care. A calm mind and positive energy enhance your speaking abilities. Practice mindfulness, meditation, or any activity that brings you inner peace.

The speakers that become successful in less time are the ones that continuously review and refine their speaking. One technique that I have taught new speakers to use is to reflect back on 4 key areas: audience engagement, story delivery, speaking technical and Next time. Audience engagement is reflecting to the audience and asking did they get the main point of your message? It is also about where they engaged and with you during your keynote and did they walk away with value? Story delivering is about how well you delivered your story and the vocal inflection, pace and content. Speaking technique is about the opening, the closing, time management and use of the stage. Next time is about what shifts need to be made to improve.

6. Reflect and Refine: After each speaking opportunity, reflect on what went well and what you can improve. Seek feedback, learn from your experiences, and refine your approach.

I always rehearse my speech with someone to get feedback. I always get feedback after an actual speech and I take my lessons. I got better as a person by accepting feedback, good or bad without taking it personally. Feedback is a present, we should take it as it is.
