   5 Ways to Become a Highly Persuasive Speaker
   Knowing how to speak effectively and persuasively has become an essential skill in a modern life. Although it’s possible to become a good speaker, you may face some difficulties if you are a shy or introverted person. Speaking in front of a crowd is never easy, especially when you need to explain or prove something. You should learn how to convey your thoughts and information in a more professional and credible way so that your audience could understand you and support your opinion. Don’t expect quick results, though. You should practice a lot, develop a few habits, fight your fears and boost your confidence. Whether you have an important business meeting, presentation, conference or lecture, here are a few steps you can take to become a highly persuasive speaker.
   【R1】______
   When it comes to presentations, the most difficult thing to do is probably to grab your audience’s attention. Successful speakers know how to hook the audience’s attention with their first words. Prepare a great opening that will make everyone listen to you attentively.
   【R2】______
   A loud and clear voice will not only make yourself more confident but also your statement more understandable and convincing. It can take a lot of effort and time to learn how to speak more loudly and clearly. You should practice your speaking skills each day. Even if you don’t need to run meetings and presentations now, you will need those skills in future.
   【R3】______
   When you use this correctly, you convey your message more easily and people understand you better. Your manner of speaking, your facial expressions, your posture and your physical movements are crucially important. Develop good facial expressions, learn how to keep your eye contact, listen to others, improve your posture, don’t cross your arms and smile when needed. All these things will help you become a highly persuasive speaker.
   【R4】______
   When you give your speech, think about it only. No matter what problems you have in life, forget about them. Focus on your thoughts and ideas, concentrate your mind on what you are saying, and don’t lose your focus no matter what questions your audience would ask. When you are not interested in what you are talking about, then why should others?
   【R5】______
   If you don’t feel confident in front of your audience, you will never speak persuasively because people won’t believe your words. Believe in yourself and others will believe in you. You are smart, professional and successful. If you’re chosen to give a speech or run a meeting, then your boss believes in your abilities. Speak clearly, make eye contact, smile and be friendly. Look confident even when you don’t feel like that and you will certainly become one of the best speakers in your office.
