Speaking Under Pressure
Speaking and Speeches
Training
Provided by Jim McGuirk & Associates
In countless one-on-one situations throughout the
day, and in both small and large meetings throughout the week, there
is a need to speak and think clearly under pressure. We define pressure
as the sense of urgency and the physical reaction to a situation demanding
attention. At a meeting someone asks you a tough question; the situation
demands your attention and there is a physical and psychological reaction.
Anytime we present our thoughts to clients, to managers, to peers,
to subordinates, we are under a degree of pressure to communicate
clearly and confidently. Pressure is inherent in a business environment.
