In general, it is essential to adequately prepare your presentation and deliver a good speech if you want to leave a positive impression on your audience.

However, as a leader, it is especially important for you to be able to sell yourself effectively. In this short article, we will explain how you can achieve this and why this skill is the key to a successful career.


For leaders, it is crucial to deliver good presentations and speeches.


According to a study by Harvard Business Manager (2019), a whopping 98% of surveyed executives agree with this statement. And even 86% agree with the statement “Those who deliver good speeches advance faster in their careers.”

This demonstrates how important it is for managers to be able to deliver engaging speeches. Communication skills, rhetoric, and the visualization of content are just a few of the qualities that can influence your career.

In this article on “Speaking Techniques/Rhetoric,” you will learn how to leave a confident impression on your audience and which speaking techniques can make you appear competent.

Remember: Those who can sell themselves well can advance their careers faster than others!

💡 Therefore, it is important to invest in yourself, your skills, and your career – even if many employers may not have it on their radar or simply expect these skills from leaders. But skills often need to be developed; after all, no one becomes a master overnight.
