Today we talk about a few Tips on How to Become a Good and Humorous Motivational Speaker
Humor is a very powerful tool for speakers especially in meetings and seminars. This is one of the key elements that sets a good motivational speaker apart from the rest. It is therefore no wonder that a humorous motivational speaker often has a great following.
Speaking in front of a crowd of strangers is daunting for many people. But for motivational speakers, this is their job although not all of them can engage their audience effectively. This is the advantage of a humorous motivational speaker because he understands that humor is one of the best ice-breakers. A humorous motivational speaker knows that making people laugh is a great way for them to warm up to him.
A humorous motivational speaker normally uses moderate amount of humor to liven up the atmosphere of a meeting. Furthermore, a speaker with a sense of humor encourages attendees to become part of the discussion and makes them open to suggestions and ideas. In general, the friendly approach of a humorous motivational speaker helps create an instant rapport with his audience.
Nobody wants to waste a minute of their time listening to a dull speaker. If attendees become bored, they will tune off to whatever the speaker is saying with only one thought in their minds – leaving the auditorium – that is, if they succeed to keep awake. Frankly, the only thing that can give life to any meeting and proceeding is a good laugh.
Studies show that a hearty laugh helps the mind to relax as well as the muscles. It also gives the body a healthy workout that no other exercise can provide. Laughter in seminars and meetings is very important. This will make your audience pay attention to your every word because they actually enjoy your speech, thanks to witty insights and some punch lines.
To become a good humorous motivational speaker, keep in mind the following tips:
– Be Surrounded with Humor
You can look for funny articles in the comic section of the newspaper or you can also buy joke books from the book store. Most humorous motivational speakers use any joke that they can find in their seminars.
– Watch or Listen to Famous Comedians
You can learn a lot from watching famous comedians like Jay Leno, Conan O Brien and David Letterman. You can get their style or develop your own by just observing how they deliver their jokes to their audiences. Also, you will be able to develop good lines that you can use over and over again.
– Have Fun Always
Being humorous comes out naturally if you know how to have fun.
A good humorous motivational speaker should also know the boundaries of making people laugh. Do not turn your presentation into a comedy show. After all, your job is to help them learn.
To your success
