Eye Contact – A skill that many presenters grapple with mastering. This non-verbal communication tool speaks volumes about our personalities, and the messages we convey to others. Proficient use of eye contact can give others the impression that we want to build a connection with them, and it is a crucial element in building trust with our audience. Most importantly, if used masterfully, becomes a powerful means of projecting confidence.
While it may initially feel awkward to consistently maintain eye contact during presentations, honing this skill proves invaluable in captivating our audience. If we are able to execute it well, it can serve as an invitation for our audience to engage with us, and for us to engage with them. Moreover, it allows our audience to focus on our message, adding to our perceived credibility and authority.
However, time is definitely needed to perfect the art of good eye contact.
