Fear of public speaking remains one of the most debilitating phobias known to man. For several decades, special safe techniques that allow accelerated “re-wiring” of a person’s response to different situations have been helping people from all walks of life to speak happily in public.
New York, NY, December 05 2008 — Effective public speaking is a critical communication skill in business, not only for large presentations, but also internal meetings with as few as 2-3 people. But when speaking fear strikes – a majority of adults fear speaking more than death itself – the results can be disastrous: lost business, promotions, jobs and self-esteem.
“CTRN provides the solution to the really serious problem of extreme fear when speaking in front of others,” says Seymour Segnit, Founder and President of CTRN: Change That’s Right Now. ( http://www.changethatsrightnow.com/ ) “By understanding the simple thought processes someone uses to create fear when they speak, we are able to help them rapidly ‘rewire’ their thinking, so they feel confident and calm instead.”
Help for fear of public speaking is available from many sources, but typically focuses on developing speaking skills rather than addressing the root cause of the problem: the mistaken neurological association that has been formed between speaking and fear.
Organizations such as Toastmasters have helped thousands to build confidence in this way. For the most serious cases, for more rapid results, neuro-linguistic programming techniques have proven highly effective.
“I was having a rough time with public speaking, which you have to do plenty of in my line of work, if you hope to get anywhere,” comments Peter Moore, Editor in Chief, Men’s Health Magazine. “About one month after I met with [CTRN], I flew to London and was the high-pressure opening act in an international conference of Men’s Health foreign editions. And I did well enough so that I could move on to do a lot of radio and TV interviews for the magazine. Now I actually enjoy them.”
“That’s a typical response,” says Segnit. “Our clients love the results they get with these programs – when the fear is gone, it’s like getting a new lease on life.”
CTRN offers two approaches to getting over speaking fear ( http://www.ctrn.com/fear-of-public-speaking.asp ):
1: Their “VIP” program is a short series of intensive sessions with a specially trained practitioner who directs clients quickly through the processes.
2: “Vanquish Fear & Anxiety”: a CD-based program that includes many of the techniques used by the practitioners, but at a significantly lower cost.
“Overcoming Fear of Public Speaking is actually remarkably simple,” says Segnit. “All it needs is for the individual to be truly committed to successfully overcoming the fear, and they can quickly learn to eliminate the patterns of thinking that were triggering a fear response when they speak.”
