HAVE!FAITH IN!YOUR!VOICE1.

Page 10: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

As a child Bertie was teased and ignored by the powerful men in his family. His stammer only became worse as he believed he didn’t have a voice.

Page 11: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

At first many presenters struggle to get their words out.

Just as the throne was thrust upon Bertie you too will have your moment to step up.

Page 12: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

At first many presenters struggle to get their words out.

Just as the throne was thrust upon Bertie you too will have your moment to step up.

The question is: will you have faith in yourself and in what you are saying?

ADMIT!YOU NEED!HELP2.

Page 14: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

Bertie was willing to admit he had a problem.

His success was largely due to one man: a self-taught Australian speech therapist.

He could have been consumed by his ego, but instead was open to the support of his wife Elizabeth and to being coached by Lionel who helped him conquer his speech impediment, turning him into a great monarch.

We are all flawed.

No one can become a great presenter by themselves. One needs to let go of their ego, reach out, and be open to feedback.

You’re only as great as the people you surround yourself with.

Find your own Lionel and Elizabeth.

PUT!THE HOURS!IN3.

Page 17: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

At first Bertie was convinced his stammer couldn’t be fixed.

It wasn’t until he let go of his ego and was willing to accept the exercises from Lionel that he was able to change.

There’s no substitute for hard work.

Page 19: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

You have to roll up your sleeves and put the hours in to get to where you want to be, even if you’re the King of England.

There’s no substitute for hard work.

BECOME!AN!EXPERT FROM!EXPERIENCE4.

Page 21: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

Lionel believed that getting to the heart of his psychological problem could help cure the King.

Page 22: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

He knew this, not from his academic credentials (he had none), but rather from the methods he studied and applied based on what he found worked for over 30 years.

His experience made him an expert.

BROADCAST!A TRUE!VERSION OF!YOURSELF5.

Bertie was not only required to speak to England, but to the 58 countries in the Commonwealth.

Page 25: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

Bertie was not only required to speak to England, but to the 58 countries in the Commonwealth.

The advent of live radio meant that he couldn’t be bailed out with his remarks being recorded and edited as in previous years.

Page 26: 5 Presentation Lessons From The King's Speech

King George VI was loved by his people because his stammer humanized him.

He was a hero because of his imperfections.

Be genuine and don’t be afraid of your flaws, they are what make you human.
