When D-Day comes, make sure you get to the venue as early as possible to feel it out. Is it a large auditorium or a relatively small meeting room? You dont want to think you are speaking to a room that holds 50 only to find out you have enough room in the hall for 150.

Dress in comfortable clothes that look nice. This will boost your confidence and make your feel more at ease.

Don't let the audience think that you are not one hundred percent confident and knowledgeable about your topic. After all, they are there to get information from you. If they knew more about the issue at hand, they wouldn't be there.

Remember, you have earned the right to speak. Somebody somewhere decided you were the best person to present this idea, whatever it may be, to the masses.

And breathe!
