Manage episode 497090840 series 3367757
The odds are… you're afraid of public speaking.
And if not, you've definitely cringed through enough presentations to know it's a real struggle for many.
In this episode of SEEKERS, we speak with Dr. Alexander McWilliam - actor, coach, and one of the few people in the world with a PhD in public speaking anxiety. He’s also the founder of Improv4Business, where he uses improvisation and performance psychology to help people become confident, engaging communicators.
We talk about:
- Why public speaking makes people panic—and how to rewire that fear
- What most people get wrong about delivering a message
- The power of voice, body, and presence
- How improv techniques can transform how you speak
- Why storytelling matters, even in boring meetings
- And whether “fake it till you make it” actually works
Whether you're pitching investors, leading meetings, or just want to stop dreading Zoom calls - this episode is for you.
