7月21日在俱乐部做的一个演讲,题目叫 搭讪 (Da Shan)
C5练习的目标是:
- Use stance, movement, gestures, facial expressions, and eye contact to express your message and achieve your speech’s purpose.
- Make your body language smooth and natural.
总的来说,演讲是失败的,我本身就是一个过于严肃的人,做很夸张的动作和面部表情一直都不是我的长项。
不过从话题的高效性来说,应该还是挺有趣的。
我讲了搭讪的四个原则,虽然是我胡诌出来的,因为显然我不是一个搭讪大师。
- “Hi” 原则
一句Hi,可以减低双方的陌生感,增加认识的机会。
- “Show”原则
表现你的比较好的地方,引起对方的话题。
- “Brave”原则
比较害怕失败,原则就是“不要害怕失败,因为根本没有脸面可以Lose”
- “Concern”原则
当变成朋友的时候,你需要关注对方的生活,类似商业上的“CRM”原则。
总的来说,H-S-B-C的原则,可以帮助你认识到更多的人。
从录像来看,我准备非常不充分,基本上是仓促上阵的,Speech也没有强调C5需要练习的地方,也不是特别的自信。
这里摘录一下sixminute博客针对Toastmaster C5的的建议:
1. Remove “Noisy” Movements
The Competent Communicator manual advice for this project is excellent, and among my favorite pieces of advice is “any movement during your speech should be purposeful.”
For many people, there is as much to be gained from removing nervous and distracting movements as there is from adding conscious gestures. It may seem counterintuitive, but this is “addition by subtraction.”
“There is as much to be gained from removing nervous and distracting movements as there is from adding conscious gestures.”
Before delivering this speech, ask your mentor or a fellow club member to highlight your most distracting physical mannerism. We all have one. Mine is “wringing” of my hands. Yours might be a tendency to play with your hair. It might be playing with your keys or coins in your pocket. It might be rocking back and forth from your heel to your toe.
Whatever it is, make a goal in this project to consciously remove or reduce it in this speech project. By doing so, you can clear your physical palette, and then you’ll be ready for purpose additions of gestures to complement your message.
2. Avoid “Forcing” Gestures into Your Speech
One common mistake I see in Toastmasters who tackle this speech project is to overdo it by awkwardly forcing a hand gesture into nearly every sentence. This almost always results in a very choppy and awkward delivery.
Remember that your goal is not to provide a continuous physical interpretation of every word spoken. Instead, add gestures selectively where they add the most impact.
I find that the best way to avoid forcing hand and arms gestures is to try to strike an even balance between the other forms of physical gestures — eye contact, facial expressions, posture, or whole body movements. For example, if you convey an important emotion with your facial expression, your arms can relax to your sides because they “aren’t needed.”
“Remember that your goal is not to provide a continuous physical interpretation of every word spoken.”
3. Record Video of Yourself Speaking
If you have not seen yourself speaking yet, use this project as the motivation to finally do it. The best way to discover any distracting movements is to watch yourself delivering a speech with the volume turned off.
- Is your body constantly in movement, or do you come to rest in between gestures?
- Do your gestures alone (without the sound) convey emotions which match your message?
- Is your face expressive or flat?
- Are your eyes darting around the room or providing sustained contact?
总结一下Toastmasters的C5演讲就是:
1.你的动作应该都是有目的性的;
不要做无目的性的动作,你看我的录像我在左右摇摆,很漫无目的,其实是我对内容准备的不充分的体现。
2.不要过犹不及;
一个强有力的演讲,他的动作也必然是强有力的,是充满内涵的力量的。但是不要每个地方都用手臂的挥动去强调。
只是对最需要强调的地方,用手臂和身体的动作去强调。
可以通过和其他表情和动作均衡的方式,可以平衡自己不断做强调动作的倾向。
3.录像
只有录像大概才会发现自己做的好坏
最近做的几个演讲都不太好,大概跟自己投入的时间的多少有很大的关系。已经加入俱乐部7个月了,做了5个Speech,其实在俱乐部自己练习演讲的机会很少,大部分都用来做各种杂活了,我在想,做Officer应该有更多的机会去说,但是我好像一直都没有什么机会去说。以后应该在Speech上面投入更多的时间。
