段津:我先讲讲外国的经验,1996年我在澳大利亚悉尼一家图书馆的新书陈列架上看到了《成功的秘诀》一书,书中有一节谈到了演说的12项注意,我随手抄录了下来。这演讲要素12项是Presenting Skills(演说技巧)
1.Know your topic(知道你要讲什么题目)
2.Know your audience(了解你的听众)
3.Know your start and stop times,as well as who else is on(知道你开始和停止的时间以及除你之外还有谁要讲话)
4.Know what you want people to do differently and tell them(对你所说的和人们所做的有什么不同,心中要有数,并让听众知道)
5.Make major points.(写下你的讲话要点)
6.Check all your equipment,sound,lighting and seating arrangements.(检查你的器材、音响、灯光和座位)
7.Ask someone you trust and respect to constructively critique you.(请一个你所信任和尊敬的人对你的讲稿提出建设性的批评和意见)
8.Relax before you go on.(演讲前要放松)
9.Practise,practise,practise.(练习、练习,再练习)
10.Remember that even if you miss a bit or forget a couple of lines,nobody knows except you.(记住即或你漏掉一点或忘掉几行,除了你自己,别人是不会发现的)
11.Omit telling jokes unless you are already a good joke-teller or plan to get better.(收起你想讲的笑话,除非你已经擅长讲笑话或者计划在这方面有所提高)
12.Have fun(要有趣味)
