Public Speaking Seminars: Become An Expert at Public Speaking Rescue And Recovery
1. Rapid recovery from any situation
Even the best public speaking speakers in the world sometimes get stuck - but the best public speaking speakers in the world know how to get unstuck, and FAST!
There is a wealth of tools that great public speaking speakers have at their fingertips which give them total power and control over any situation.
A public speaking speaker who recovers composure fast after losing their train of thought, or who deals gracefully and elegantly with a heckler, or who can pick up their thread seamlessly following an interruption or distraction will gain the respect and support of their audience.
2. Knowing how to rapidly rescue a deteriorating situation will help you

3. The 4 most common mistakes public speaking speakers make when they get flustered
a. Totally lose their train of thought
b. Start to 'um' and 'ah'
c. Look to the audience to help them out
d. Try to tell a joke
4. Case study
I was once a visiting public speaking speaker at a well-attended university alumni event, and stayed around after my presentation to hear the closing public speaking speech from the vice chancellor.
It was very nearly one of the most excruciating public speaking experiences I have ever sat through, as he stumbled from one bad joke to another, tripping up over his words and gradually turning bright red as he got more and more flustered.
But then I was amazed to witness one of the biggest stage turn-arounds I have ever seen. The vice chancellor literally stopped speaking, took a step back from the podium, seemed to close his eyes for a second... and then stepped back to the microphone a changed public speaking speaker.
Within minutes, he had re-connected with an audience he had totally lost, and finished his speech to thunderous applause.
I don't know where or what his 'safe place' was, but I'm just glad he had enough tools and tricks at his disposal to access it quickly when he most needed it.
5. Knowing how to recover from a difficult situation is like having an invisible parachute strapped to your back when you're thrown out of the plane at 20,000 feet...
Imagine being high up in the sky, safe and secure in your plane, and then suddenly finding yourself free-falling through the sky, plummeting towards the ground below. Without a parachute strapped to your back, you are going to have a very heavy - and messy - landing.
However, with the security of a parachute, you can slow down and even control your descent, land in a safe place, and then take off at a run again!
