Be it political leaders, thinkers, philosophers, business leaders, lawyers, jurists, spiritual gurus and more. The history will anytime and forever testify witness that people who are good at public speaking were relatively and comparatively more successful than those for whom public speaking was either a disability or less of a priority. Let me today guide you through some of the key elements of public speaking. I will not give you long general sermons or discourses but will try to touch upon specifically the recipe. Yes, the recipe or technique of public speaking starting from the basics or fundamentals to finally giving you some technical tips regarding virtual video talks and how to record these video talks. Before proceeding to the technique of public speaking, let us first understand and imbibe in ourselves that public speaking is not merely oratory or oration or an act of performing a speech. It is actually an art, an art, a skill set as was so aptly put by a French philosopher and moralist, Jean-Dela Breuer that there are certain things in which mediocrity is not to be endured such as poetry, music, painting, public speaking. Public speaking hence cannot be taken lightly as a mere speech giving. It is a creative phenomenon. It's like it's an art. Some may have natural talent whereas other can surely acquire it with training, practice and experience. Public speaking, tenor and tone can be formal, informal, persuasive or casual or inspirational or motivational. And so on depending on the structure of the event and composition of the audience and obviously objective behind the public speaking. That also guides the format of public speaking. Well, this ends the first lecture. In the next video lecture, I will be talking about the preparatory technique in successful public speaking. See you there.
