Character public speaking

Dale Carnegie was born in America in 1888. Raised in a poor farming family required him to do various ways to survive, from selling milk to selling soap. But behind the distress, the extraordinary characters possessed by Dale Carnegie began to form.

In 1911, almost bankrupt Dale Carnegie got an idea to teach public speaking which was the forerunner of the Dale Carnegie Course. The interest of the American community in learning public speaking and increasing self-confidence made the Carnegie name soar. To this day the learning methods used by him are still applied in more than 80 countries through an organization called Dale Carnegie Training.

Preparation is the first step and the most important step in the process of public speaking. In the Public Speaking for Success book, Dale Carnegie said that make preparations by thinking about it for 7 days and dreaming of it for 7 nights. Baliau also gave an example of how a great public speaker who was also a former president of the United States, Abraham Lincoln mobilized a lot of energy to prepare before giving a speech. It is undeniable that good preparation is very important and even great talks like Abraham Lincoln did earnestly.

The main goal of each speaker is to convey a message to the audience. The message can be information, appeals, invitations and so on. So the most important thing for a speaker to consider is how to get the message to reach the audience. Dale Carnegie provides a very effective method of repetition by saying the message to be conveyed, then saying the message, and finally repeating the message again.
