Performing

Manage stress:
you need to do is recognize and
understand anxiety and
nervousness, which may arise
during presentations. This is
sometimes referred to as
performance anxiety.
Overview

Performance Anxiety.
It is not necessarily harmful; a slightly increased anxiety
level can motivate you to do the work needed so that you
are effectively prepared for the event: it can make you
more alert and energized.
Overview

What to do about it?

A. Expect that you will feel


some nerves or anxiety

On the day of the presentation or interview


expect that you will have some nerves or anxiety.
This is your body's way of preparing itself to cope,
so do not try to eliminate your nerves totally, but
aim to keep them under control.
Overview

B. Think positively: don't jump
to conclusions about
people's reactions
Do not forget to use the positive thinking skills that
you have been practicing up to the event on the
day itself. Tell yourself you can do it and try not to
jump to conclusions about how people appear to
be reacting to you.
Overview

C. Try to relax yourself


physically

Remember to use the breathing exercise we


have practiced. You may also find it useful to do
a relaxation exercise to release muscular tension
in places such as the neck and shoulders.
Overview

D. Be careful about what you
eat and drink

Avoid food or drink that is high in sugar, alcohol


or caffeine as these can make you feel nervous.
Immediately prior to the event it can be better to
have a warm rather than cold drink.
Overview

E. Prepare strategies in case


you feel overwhelmed

Do something that will distract you from the frozen


state. You could change your posture or focus
your gaze just above peoples' eyes for a few
seconds, which may help you to collect your
thoughts.
Overview

F. Reward yourself for a job
done

Praise yourself afterwards for a job done no


matter how well or badly you think it went, and
then do something you enjoy as a special treat.
Overview

Persuade

In order to best
accomplish this,
presenters use a variety of
arguments and strategies,
most of which can be
summed up into the three
rhetorical appeals: ethos,
logos, and pathos.
