1 Assess their needs

The first step is to understand what your coachee wants to achieve with their public speaking and what are the main obstacles they face. You can use a variety of tools and methods to assess their needs, such as surveys, interviews, observations, feedback, or self-assessments. The goal is to identify their strengths and weaknesses, their goals and expectations, their audience and context, and their sources of anxiety and resistance.

It is more than just an assessment of the coachee. Instead it involves pondering about the areas where there are hidden fears and weaknesses. Once the real fear is identified, it is easier to tackle the main hindrance in public speaking.

For coaches tackling public speaking nerves: Practice Loads: Start small, mirror practice works wonders. Key Points Rule: Break your talk into key points for clarity. Visual Aids FTW: Slides or props are your presentation pals. Breathe & Pace: Take it slow; deep breaths are your allies. Connect Eyes & Hearts: Eye contact rocks, make it a conversation. Feedback = Gold: Embrace feedback for killer improvements. Join Speaking Groups: Toastmasters is a cool place to finesse your skills. Perfectly Imperfect: Embrace imperfections; they're what make you real. You've so got this! ??

2 Provide feedback and support

The second step is to provide constructive and supportive feedback to your coachee based on your assessment. You can use the GROW model (Goal, Reality, Options, Will) to structure your feedback and help your coachee set realistic and specific goals, evaluate their current situation, explore different options and strategies, and commit to an action plan. You can also use the COACH model (Curiosity, Openness, Awareness, Courage, Humility) to foster a positive and trusting relationship with your coachee and encourage them to be curious, open, aware, courageous, and humble in their learning process.

3 Teach skills and techniques

The third step is to teach your coachee the skills and techniques that can enhance their public speaking performance. You can focus on different aspects of public speaking, such as content, structure, delivery, body language, voice, eye contact, gestures, audience engagement, storytelling, humor, etc. You can use various methods to teach these skills, such as demonstrations, examples, exercises, role-plays, simulations, videos, podcasts, books, articles, etc. You can also tailor your teaching to your coachee's learning style, preferences, and personality.

You’ve got to remember your “Why”. It’s so easy to get side tracked when speaking on different topics and to different focus groups. It’s imperative to remember why YOU have been asked to speak to this group, but also why you started serving as a speaker in the first place.

4 Challenge and stretch

The fourth step is to challenge and stretch your coachee to practice their public speaking skills in different situations and scenarios. You can create opportunities for your coachee to speak in front of different audiences, such as peers, colleagues, managers, clients, etc. You can also vary the topics, formats, durations, and purposes of their speeches, such as informative, persuasive, motivational, etc. You can also introduce some elements of difficulty or uncertainty, such as unexpected questions, interruptions, technical issues, etc. The aim is to help your coachee develop their adaptability, resilience, and creativity.

Many executive leaders have no problem speaking to a peer or someone they manage 1:1. Even a small group can be fine! What's key for a coach to assess is where their coachee is experiencing PRESSURE. Pressure is what often keeps leaders from speaking, even those with years of expertise. C-suite leaders, board members, investors can all feel pressure from: - Being recorded - Important people in the room - Being asked to speak on the spot - Speaking to groups of 10-200+ people As a public speaking coach, the goal is to help my client experience a simulation of the pressure, gradually increasing intensity over time so their nervous systems can get accustomed. Paired with feedback, these leaders can address their fear within a week or two.

5 Celebrate and reinforce

The fifth step is to celebrate and reinforce your coachee's achievements and progress in public speaking. You can use various ways to acknowledge and appreciate their efforts, such as praise, recognition, rewards, testimonials, etc. You can also use different tools to measure and track their results, such as feedback forms, ratings, scores, comments, etc. The goal is to help your coachee build their confidence, motivation, and satisfaction in public speaking and to reinforce their positive behaviors and habits.

6 Review and reflect

The sixth step is to review and reflect on your coachee's public speaking journey and to identify the key learnings, insights, and outcomes. You can use different techniques to facilitate this process, such as debriefing, journaling, coaching questions, etc. The objective is to help your coachee consolidate their learning, evaluate their performance, identify their gaps and areas for improvement, and plan their next steps and actions. You can also use this opportunity to solicit feedback from your coachee about your coaching style, methods, and impact and to adjust your approach accordingly.
