Scared of Public Speaking?

Did you know that 2 out of every 3 people have a public speaking phobia? 

Take a look at the Fear of Public Speaking infographic below. What do you think of the numbers and the reasoning behind the numbers? Why is that people are more scared of public speaking then they are of death? Do you personally know someone that would never even attempt to speak in front of a crowd? What tips would you offer to someone that is afraid of public speaking? If you were a once scared of public speaking and then overcame the fear, how exactly did you accomplish that? What steps did you take to get rid of the fear and to improve your public speaking skills?

We're interested in hearing your answers in the comment below and promise to use them in a future blog post.

The Florida Public Speaking LinkedIn Group is Growing

Over the past couple of months our LinkedIn group has grown to 140+ members. People use this group as a way of exchanging public speaking related articles and information. We have had some very heated debates and great exchanges of information on the site. Make sure to join if you aren't a member. If you are on LinkedIn click this link and then click join. You will get confirmation that your membership has been accepted and that you can now take part in the lively public speaking discussions.

I look forward to seeing you on the boards.
