Saying all that is necessary, only what is necessary and nothing else is a difficult task, but we must always strive for it. When a person has mastered the art of speech and learned to control his actions, and the audience reacts positively, he will be satisfied.
What is objectivity and how to use it during a performance
Contrary to popular belief, speaking objectively is not the same as speaking little, although those who speak objectively usually know how to be concise and keep their mouths down.
But here other factors come into play: the content and purpose. It is pointless to say little if you are unable to convey the information that the audience needs in this way or to convince the audience. But continuing to speak after you have already fully explained your message and convinced your listeners is a communication error that should be avoided.
Analyze the topic of your presentation in advance
Once you have identified the topic of your presentation, collect the arguments you want to support your information with. At this stage, you do the first screening in order to eliminate weaker arguments and unnecessary information and use only what is logically coherent.
Ruthlessly cross out all unnecessary things.
In addition, check that you are not carried away by the repeated repetition of the same thing. Repetition of an argument, no matter how good it is, reduces your credibility and makes your performance redundant.
Weighing the likelihood of objections from the listeners, make sure that your assumptions are realistic. Counterarguments to repel an attack that may not follow can create a problem that otherwise would not have arisen at all. In addition, such a battle with the phantoms is a waste of time and another sure way to kill the objectivity of the presentation.
Up to what point do listeners perceive the message?
In many situations, we can go straight to the main question without any circumstantialities. On the other hand, in this case, it is assumed that the audience is already ready to hear what we want to bring to their attention.
Free training. Free schedule.
If you go ahead with your goal, even before listeners know what the topic of your presentation is, what the problem is, and what parts of your speech consists of, you will prevent the audience from understanding the information and disrupt the communication process.
Here is a good list of questions that will help you to be more objective (tick the box next to each item, at least mentally).
Does the audience know what the topic of your presentation is?
There is no need to overdo it, but even if the audience already has this information, there is no harm in briefly touching on your presentation.
Does the audience know what kind of problem you're going to solve, or the history of current information, or parts of your speech?
This is a more important question because explaining these things can take precious time and is generally unnecessary. Typically, listeners are already familiar with the problem and its background, but people often waste time telling the audience what they already know.
If your audience easily follows the first phrases of your presentation, there is no need to describe all the parts of it.
Note that at this point you will be analyzing whether you need to further orientate your audience, making your message more understandable. If you decide that the audience is ready, then do not hesitate to cut off anything insignificant. Remember: to be objective and objective, you just have to cut off everything you don't need.
