Public speaking | How to nail your virtual speech

Having a commanding presence and the ability to capture an audience while speaking publicly is something every business leader strives to achieve during their career.

However, during this less than traditional time of working where more employees than ever before are working from home, being able to deliver the same commanding speech over a video call can be difficult to master.

When a world leader takes to our screens to share news, searches for the individual spike exponentially as members of the public feel inspiration and awe. For example, when her Majesty The Queen recently held a speech, searches for HRH rocketed by 2,400%, similarly, when PM Boris Johnson first addressed the nation during the beginning of the lockdown searches for Prime Minister spiked by 200% in a day.
