    4 Key points: 1) Approach -Think of speaking as a positive opportunity to share your ideas with people 2) Audience -What does your audience need to know from you? What do they already know? What do they expect of you? What's their attitude about your topic? 3)Context -Context is important: What time is it? What emotional state is your audience in? What emotional state do you want to put them in? Where are you physically? 4) Structure Structure your talk to keep people engaged! Try: a) Past - Present - Future: This is what the situation was, here is what it is now, here's how we want to change the situation for the future b)Problem - solution - benefit: Here's the problem we're facing. Here's the solution I recommend. Here's the benefit to be expected c)What - so what? - now what? : Here's the issue. Here's why you should care. Here's what we should do.

    Summary: The 4 tools for getting a message through to an audience 1. Approach - Think of any perplexing situation as an *opportunity* to share what is it that you're thinking, not a threat to who you are. - Henceforth you become more *open* to such situations. 2. Audience - Understand what your audience needs by categorizing those needs as their *knowledge* of the subject, their *expectations* for what you'd do, and their *attitudes* towards what you're saying. - *Appreciate* the audience, tailor your message to suit their needs. 3. Context - Oftentimes, we find ourselves in different positions as we pitch our message. - Pay attention to all the involving factors be it the *timing* of your message, your *tone* of voice (whether you're speaking or writing, emotional content matters just as much as the informational content), and the *location* in which the message is delivered. 4. Structure - We as humans remember things 40% better when they are structured. - That's how we can learn to *group together* pieces of information just like we used to remember cell phone numbers. - Structures set *expectations* for the audience while the message is being delivered, therefore it helps to have a map for your speech/ essay/... - "How to help you know what comes next" Here are examples of some types of orderly message organizations: + *Past-Present-Future* structure (chronological order) + *Problem-Solution-Benefit* structure (one of the most persuasive) + *What-SoWhat-NowWhat* structure (one of the most versatile)

    The main reason why public speaking is fearsome is because you become an easy target. It's you, alone, against a crowd. Being outnumbered is never a good position to be in. That's why leaders and people in power have many security measures, quite often including life threatening mechanisms, such as all kinds of weapons. But also, most people are raised within a society with laws, and law enforcers. All kids from an early age are domesticated, they learn they get punished for defying figures of authority. They get physically punished, psychologically punished (shamed, grounded, ridiculed, deprived of personal rights). Eventually most people reach a certain level of domestication, and behave in a "docile enough" manner. Still, its is dangerous to be alone, or to be a minority. People who go on stages are generally alone at the stage, but there's a whole mechanism behind them. There's the power of the organization. There are bouncers, there are police officers who might be called. There are many kinds of actual, real time, present restrictive/protective mechanism, as well as potential, accessory ones. So, the real why MOST PEOPLE are afraid of putting themselves in the spotlight, is because most people are not in power. Most people subconsciously (or consciously) know they are socially weak. Most people don't have guns, most people don't have bouncers, most people don't have a solid safety system around them. On the other hand, people who were raised in more safe environments, who were trained not to fear attacks, can generally become "more confident", as they don't have the life threatening sensation of being outnumbered. There are also the ones who become confident because of progressive acquired power, in a figurative comparison (an analogy) , it's like people who get used to being beat up, lynch-mobbed, and simply toughen up, and get used to being in life threatening situations. Normally kids that practice fighting sports, or heavy contact sports, become more confident overall, and specially become somewhat fearless in terms of physical injuries, when most average people are somewhat fearsome of getting hurt, getting into physical fights, etc. And I haven't watched the video yet... these thoughts just came to mind from the 2 first minutes.

    +CzechRiot Wow. I was not expecting to find this in the youtube comments section. This was pretty insightful and you make a good point. That's very true - People are taught to conform to rules, to be wary of authority figures and be docile, stay out of trouble and keep your guard up. Yet the very nature of public speaking is to be completely vulnerable. I think subconsciously it's the equivalent of saying to kids "Whatever you do, stay away from the Lions" but then later being told to do a speech is like suddenly hearing "OK Buddy, go fight that pack of Lions" Also yea, we're hearing things from an early age things like "Oh you don't know any better you're just a kid" or "Aw that's a cute idea, but I don't think it will work honey". Basically we have to learn how to rebuild our confidence after society has bashed it down. Not the easiest medium to have a discussion on, but thanks for the interesting comment, sir.

    No if you can plan and structure when talking to somebody you will, overtime, begin to think faster and talk smarter. Since you have a plan you have an idea of the outcomes and possibilities which the conversation can go. If you structure the conversation properly you will not only keep your client engaged but also come off smarter. At least that's what I think he's getting at.

    Knowledge is the greatest gift in my opinion. We have a brains to process knowledge and make our own beliefs. We have souls to know if what we belive in is just. We have mouths to share our knowledge. We have ears to listen to others knowledge. We have hands and feet to put our knowledge into action. Everything has a purpose. A bad thing can turn into a good thing and a good thing can turn into a bad thing.

    Very interesting how opinion is so divided on this talk. I see it this way: Fluent English speakers sense how uncomfortable this guy is on stage. His delivery is mechanical to them, and they don't have the patience to wait on his painfully slow delivery. But English learners genuinely appreciate this kind of information presented in a clear deliberate manner. It makes me wonder who the target audience is. I was interested but bored to death. So glad Quick Talks put up a nice summary.

    I strongly recommend an earlier lecture of his held in standford, in fact that very lecture bring me here, in that he excels big time so that at the end was a Q&A in which people was praising him about the lecture and its usefulness somewhat he left me wanting more from him and thats why im here but the thing is that I get a little bit dissapointed when i finished watching this, simply put (I think) a 20 min ted talk isnt an appropiate way for some lectures to be presented, some works end up being fine some just dont and I dont want to mean this ted to be a case in Point but certainly it seems to me that he should have approached it differently, in the other presentation mentioned he got the audience to engage in workshoping practical activities so people there experienced , lived first hand the words, the theory he preached so it Kind of made sense to me and for everyone involved being that time wasnt an issue, so I see many bad comments with which I partially agree but I just wanted to say give the man a chance and go and look for that lecture I m talking about, youll see something different and Who knows you maybe find it inspiring and change your opinion, just saying

    Профессор по коммуникации рассказывает том, как думать быстро и говорить умно. На что обратить внимание: 1. Подход. 2. Аудитория, с которой говорю. 3. Контекст, в котором нахожусь. 4. Структура речи. Подробнее: 1. Открытый Подход. Коммуникацию целесообразно рассматривать, как возможность поделиться своими мыслями, идеями, убеждениями. 2. Аудитория. Лучше думать: "Что нужно услышать моей аудитории?", а не "Что мне нужно сказать?". Я настраиваюсь на собеседника, чтобы удовлетворить его потребности. И для этого нужно провести разведку. Полезные вопросы для анализа аудитории: а) "Что они знают по теме?" б) "Чего они от меня ожидают?" (иногда очень полезно нарушать ожидания). в) "Каково их отношение?" (они поддерживают, они против, им всё равно, они сомневаются. Важно понимать, что нужно моей аудитории.) 3. Контекст, в котором я говорю. Стоит учитывать: а) Время: "В какое время я выступаю?" б) Эмоции: "В каком состоянии слушатели?" в) Локация: "Где я выступаю?" 4. Структура. Как я структурирую моё сообщение? Структурированную информацию на 40% легче воспринимать. Выделяю важное. Делю на порции. Виды структур: а) хронология (очень удобна и понятна) б) "проблема-решение-польза решения" (очень убедительна) в) "что, так что, теперь что" (проблема, почему это важно; что будет дальше). Структура объединяет и помогает на потерять аудиторию. Итак, если я правильно понимаю сообщение и эффективно его доношу, я могу добиться больших результатов.

    Be smart, fast thinking is audience important.What my audience need to hear? Who they are? What their knowledge and expectation. What they expect to you? What is their attitude? Firstly you have to contact. And you have to think of the time then communicate of the feeling of others. Structure keeps people together 1.Past-present-future 2.Problem-solution-Benefit 3.What so what now what

    I can't really agree. That's about talking to people, making them out - or in - their own comfy zones, doesn't matters if you talks to a couple friends or a class, since you're paying enough attention on them as a group, their signals, their reactions, their preferences, you have mastered your communication skills. If you can be empathic and empathize people, that's the thing he explains, the "smartness".
