That\u2019s usually center stage. There might not be an actual stage, so \u201ccenter stage\u201d could simply be the middle of the front of a meeting room.<\/p>\n<p><b>Onscreen presentation<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Stand to one side when you want the audience to focus on the screen. If you stand to the left of the screen from the audience\u2019s perspective, it\u2019s easy for them to move their eyes from you to any text on the screen because we read from left to right. Return to center stage when you want the audience to focus on you. If the audience is spending more time focusing on the screen than listening to you, you may need to simplify your presentation materials.<\/p>\n<p><b>Lectern or table<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Venues often provide a lectern or table for the speaker. Where possible, get out from behind any furniture and move to &#8211; you guessed it &#8211; center stage. When something stands between you and the audience it creates a physical barrier and is more difficult to connect with people.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to stand rigidly in one spot the entire time. We\u2019ll talk about \u201cmoving around\u201d in a separate blog post. The point here is to be aware of the impact of where you stand as your \u201cdefault\u201d position. Does it make you look confident or cowardly?<\/p>\n<p>When not hiding behind furniture, nervous presenters often stand as far back as possible from the audience. This makes it difficult to engage with the audience and sends a strong message that the presenter lacks confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Take a step toward center stage and you\u2019ll look more confident &#8211; even if you don\u2019t feel it yet. Look for the audience\u2019s positive reaction and you\u2019ll gradually start to feel more confident. It\u2019s a virtuous cycle!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u3053\u306e\u8a18\u4e8b\u3067\u306f\u3001\u30d7\u30ec\u30bc\u30f3\u306b\u6700\u9069\u306a\u7acb\u3061\u4f4d\u7f6e\u306b\u3064\u3044\u3066\u3054\u7d39\u4ecb\u3057\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002 \u8a18\u4e8b\u306f\u82f1\u8a9e\u3067\u3059\u3002 \u3069\u3046\u305e\u304a\u5f79\u7acb\u3066\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\uff01 Have you ever thought about where you stand when giving a presentation?
