A “public speaking strength” is anything, from any area of your life, that helps you get your point across when you talk to other people.
Your strengths might include a fancy education, a Hollywood hairstyle, a big personality, or a Nobel Prize. It doesn’t matter what they are — anything is potentially useful. What matters is that you know what they are, and are able to use your strengths (and your skills) with confidence.
Here are some sample communications strengths and skills.
Are you:
- Logical?
- Sincere?
- Funny?
- Well-organized?
- Good with detail?
- Willing to take a risk?
Do you have a:
- Great smile?
- Relaxed manner?
- Commanding voice?
- Interesting viewpoint?
- Good education?
- Quick wit?
Most people find it a lot easier to think about their flaws than what they do well. It’s easy to forget (or just never appreciate) that we each have our own unique superpowers.
