There is something in him that makes people pay so much interest and his story has indeed influenced the world. What is the connection between being a good speaker and being enable to establish the command for leadership? Well, not all people are gifted with the eloquence and leadership altogether. But, there is that truth which connects the doors of being able o speak your mind in the best possible language and the way you could lead subordinates.

      Good speakers are able to build that image of dependability. How could you gather people to obey you when they do not even care to listen to what you say?

      When you have the command of speech, you have the ability to mold the beliefs and perceptions of others. With this, you could guide them to do what they could in accordance to what you think is correct and you shared those thoughts in the form of advice. As someone they look up to, it would be easier for you to let them follow what you believe in.

      AS A MERCHANT OF OPINION, you have to be articulate as a speaker. His is also a quality that a good leader must possess. When you have these, you would definitely be a person for people.

      As a public speaker, you are exposed to many different people. You have to pulsate on what their type of demands are, meet these as much as you could. This could help you strengthen your leadership. As you get exposed with many different people, you would be sensitive in their needs and wants.

      Leaders are born or made? Must a leader be a good speaker? Well, there are no assurances but there are advantages.

      Training the tongue

      THERE ARE NATURAL-BORN good speakers. Do you need to be born with the gift of eloquence in order not to be lousy in public speaking? No. Well, it is of course an advantage but you should not dwell with the thought that you would not have the chance to be a good public speaker.

      There are trainings for public speaking that could help you a lot in improving your public speaking potentials. When you are eager to learn and determined to push your self to the rooms on top when it comes to speaking in front of an audience, why not get yourself trained?

      There are steps you could take in order for you to get trained. The following are just some you could try:

      Meet a coach and seek help

      There are people who got really formal education and writing for public speaking, you could seek help from someone you really think would be a person of credibility and experience. With a good coach of your choice, you would be learning lots of new things- which is really good.

      Optimism this time

      It pays to identify your mistakes or flaws but with training for public speaking, you have to condition yourself to a certain level of optimism. This means that when you are on the process of improving more, you need not worry about the errors you make. You have to remind yourself as well that you are doing better each day.

      No rules, no deviants

      Treat public speaking as a free room for learning and when you are under the phase of training, do not be too harsh on your self. You could be very open with what is up for you. When you are going to be strict on your self, it would just put so much pressure and would not be helpful.

      Stop piracy

      In training for public speaking, you do not need to mold yourself into someone you look up to in that arena. You must be yourself. You could be the best with your own means and potentials. Remind yourself that you are going to be better.
