Overcoming Presentation Anxiety with Nils Vinje

B2B Leadership Podcast

May 31 2023 • 6 mins

I learned a very powerful leadership lesson long before I became a people leader.


It was my senior year in college and I was ready to be done with school and start working in the professional world.


I already had a job lined up that I would start at the end of the summer so things were good.


However, I had to give a presentation in one of my classes that represented a big part of my final grade and that was a challenge.


It was a challenge because I was extremely nervous and anxious about presenting in front of the class.


I had done some presentations as part of projects in other classes but it wasn’t something I was comfortable with.


I was mediocre at best on the outside.


But inside, I was a mess.


In the days and weeks leading up to the presentation, I scripted everything I was going to say and rehearsed it over and over again to get ready.


Despite all my practice, I was still terrified.


When it was my turn to present, there was one mindset shift I made that changed everything and allowed me to feel calm and confident.


Want to know what I did to overcome presentation anxiety?


Tune in to find out.
