3. audience focused
Forget about you. The purpose of your speech, presentation,
workshop - whatever your delivery method - is to engage
1
your audience.
It’s not about how you look, how you sound
or how you dress - it’s about them. It’s about engaging your audience. It’s about
connecting with your audience.
Everything you do in a speech or presentation has to be focused on your
audience. So, when you’re designing your presentation, ask yourself, “What
information does my audience need to know? How can I make this information
more relevant for them? How can I help them achieve their goals?” Approach
everything in your presentation from an audience-centered perspective.

4. passionate
If you’re not passionate about your topic, how do you expect your audience
to be? If you’re speaking on a topic, make sure it’s something
2
you’re interested in. Why? Because here’s what happens if you speak on a topic
you’re not interested in: your facial expressions and your body language will give
off signals that you’re not interested in your topic. Your audience members will
unconsciously pick up these signals and because you’re not interested, they
won’t be interested.
Now, there’s an upside to this. If you’re passionate, excited, interested in a topic,
it will show through in your presentation - and if you’re interested, you won’t
need to fake a smile or rehearse any gestures because it will all come naturally.
There’s a saying that, “If you want to sell, you first have to be sold”. You first
have to be sold on the benefits of your message and your ideas before you can
sell them to your audience.

5. expert
Be an expert on the topic you are speaking on.
3
As speakers, our main job is to share our expertise. Be so knowledgeable about
your topic that if you’re called to speak on your topic right now, you can quickly
come up with some points which would be of value to your audience.
If you’re an expert on the topic you are presenting on, you will feel confident on
stage because you are very familiar with the material you will be presenting. And
this confidence will reflect in your body language and your delivery.
If you want to be a powerfully persuasive speaker, be an APE: an
Audience-Centered, Passionate Expert.
