My speaking place: what is it like?

Exploring your speaking space before a presentation is one of the most important things you can do!

It’s not just about logistics—it’s about getting comfortable and building your confidence before you begin your speech.

Walking the stage or the room helps you understand the layout, lighting, and where your audience will sit.

This familiarity makes it much easier to move around naturally and connect with your crowd when the presentation starts because you already have a feel for your surroundings.

Plus, it’s a chance to test equipment so there are no technical surprises mid-speech.

Doing your check-in earlier rather than right before the speech also gives you one less thing to worry about, letting you focus on delivering your message.

Whether it’s a small room or a big auditorium, do a check-in. You will be surprised at how this simple tip improves your success as a public speaker!
