Presentation Skills

Ever been asked to make a short presentation to an audience? All of a sudden the heart rate increases, you start to sweat, you feel anxious. You would rather spend the whole day in a cave full of venomous snakes than give a formal presentation.

Well you might be surprised to realise that most people feel the same way. This is after all a quite natural reaction to any stressful situation. Some of the most professional speakers and actors experience some level of anxiety ahead of a presentation.
