Don't let anyone fool you into thinking some people just have that it factor.
Of course there are the Steve Martins, Amy Poehlers, Cynthias and Arianas of the world - always charming and entertaining in any situation.
But, most of the time, that unidentified quality in a great speaker, a phenomenal singer, or a captivating actor, is really just a reflection of one thing.
Rehearsal!
That moving, seamless speech or performance is usually the natural outcome of well used rehearsal time.
As a public speaking coach, one of the most frustrating things I see all over the internet is bad rehearsal advice. And, there's plenty of it to go around!
I'm sure you've heard all sorts of poor and conflicting advice over the years.
Don't rehearse at all - you don't want to sound robotic!
Rehearse your talk every 15 minutes - don't forget a word!
The conflicting information about rehearsal can make anyone's head spin.
