你能讲好

Kathy Keyi Jia-Jones(贾科一) 在加拿大创业,不但要干好,还要讲好, 这是贾科一多年在加奋斗得出的经 验之一。中国人能干,能创新,但吃了”不爱讲” 和”讲不好”的亏。不少人是公司里 的业务骨干,但由于”讲得不好”不被提拔当领导。演讲能力在很大成度上体现领导 能力;而如果不敢讲或讲不好,就容易被忽视。 怕演讲是正常的。有笑话讲,宁可躺在棺材里,也不愿至悼词。不但英语是 第二,三语的移民怕,不少英语是母语的加拿大人也同样怕。Kathy 在给大公司陪 训时见过不少这样的例子。有位在加拿大生长的经理因为在大学班上发言时爱红脸 被同学嘲笑,以后再也不愿在熟人面前演讲。中国人多数是怕说不好英语被人笑话。 怎样克服畏惧心理,提高演讲能力?提出以下几点供大家参考。 1。首先要”敢” 说。卸掉心理包袱。多说,和不同的人说,在不同的场合练习。 2。演讲时,把注意力集中在演讲内容上,而不是你自己身上,或担心别人会怎么 想。 3。学习英语商业语言及标达方法。 4。开始时不要把自己和别人比,要看到自己的成绩和进步,然后向新的目标迈进。 5。在做主要发言前,准备,准备,再准备。不光是内容上的准备,还要做语言上 , 如用词,语音,语流,肢体语言上的练习和准备。必要时可请有经验,懂得中外 语言区别的演讲培训人员加以指导。 Kathy Keyi Jia-Jones (贾科一)M.A.,曾在中国和加拿大大学任教,主教商务英语 “Business Communication”, 和 “交叉文化间有效沟通” Cross-Cultural Communication。 是 “多文化间有效沟通和解决冲突” 的作者.
