DR RANJ SINGH and WAYNE DHESI
My new job involves public speaking and doing presentations.
While creating the presentations is fine, the thought of having to speak publicly to a large group of people makes me nauseous. I’ve given one public talk before and I sweated heavily, found myself short of breath and was a nervous wreck throughout. I managed to get through it but it was a horrifying experience. Have you got any helpful tips?
