For sure, joining Toastmasters pays off. I joined years ago, stopped going, and then missed it so much that founded an advance club. It is a subtle way to improve your communication and listening skills in a very safe and encouraging environment that still gives you heaps of feedback! That, and practicing. Taking opportunities to speak on any occasion.

Excellent post! I Stumbled Upon this, looking for articles on self-improvement, and I'm glad I found this. I've been a member of Toastmaster's for quite a while, so I thought I knew enough about public speaking to keep me going, but this just taught me so much more! I'll definitely be using the recording yourself technique and the reading out loud.

Tips I would add are:

1. Get in the game and learn from the experience. Don't over analyze or shoot for perfection.
2. Follow the rule of 3s, Introduce your Topic, Make 3 points, Summarize
3. Start with topics which you have confidence and knowledge. (You know more about the topic than your audience)

Thanks Janette,

You, some other commenters and readers via email have touched on an
interesting point - there's a whole lot of ground I haven't covered yet
about how to give an effective speech, in terms of content, delivery, mental
preparation, etc. Thanks for your tip, and it sounds like this warrants a
follow up discussion.
