Welcome to Debra Jarvis Speaks
How to Present In Public…
Group and Individual training on public speaking and the science of presenting in public…
People are more scared of Public Speaking than almost anything else. That includes snakes, spiders, heights, the dark, flying, sharks, death and the boogie man.
Can you believe that?
The unfortunate truth for those who dread public speaking is that it is now an essential part of business. Just about every Sales Proposal, every Phone Call, every Meeting and every Network Appearance involves public speaking to some extent.
Fortunately, if you are one of the many who is terrified of public speaking, there is some good news.
Public Speaking is a craft. It is a science that you can learn and master – and with the help of Debra Jarvis, an internationally experienced public speaker and author, it is a lot easier than you might think. Debra’s consultancy and training courses teach you fundamental elements of public speaking that are relevant to a large number of professions and roles:
- Health
- Investment
- Real Estate
- Sales
- Customer Relations
- Business Development
- Coaching
- Finance
- Marketing
- Media
All of these professions, and many more require the ability to present information to strangers, who just so happen to be your customers. Debra can train you in the science of Public Speaking in an individual or group format. Throughout the training you will learn valuable information such as:
- Using your surroundings to place you in a position of power and esteem
- Using your personal appearance to instantly build rapport with your audience
- Developing your language to your audience and market
- Methods to overcome nervousness and deliver a stellar presentation every time.

How to go from Good to Great – 30 Tips for Speaking In Public
If you are looking to improve your skills as a public speaker these are some tips you can use to improve your skills and get more ‘buy in’ from your audience…
- Smile
- Pause
- Use your eyes to connect with everyone in your audience
- Dress appropriately to your audience.Remember if you are at the front of the room you are an authority. Make sure your appearance supports this. 55% of communication is visual! Give yourself the edge, tailor your appearance to your message and the audience you are presenting too. Girls, audiences look first and then listen, it’s just how it is! Guys your audiences aren’t quite so critical. If you look awful they will draw conclusions they may not be the ones you want.
- Remember to Never Ever miss an opportunity to speak!I received this piece of advise very early in my speaking career (young teen) and it has served me well, you never know where the next opportunity will come from!
- Avoid fidgeting – that includes nervous hand movements and pacing(I recently watched a speaker who took 3 steps back after every new point introduced, was he backing away from his message?)
