Individual skill
public-speaking-prep
Prepare for a specific talk, presentation, or speech — a clear structure, a strong open and close, delivery and nerves handling, and a rehearsal plan — so you land it. Use when asked to help me prepare a talk/presentation/speech, prep for public speaking, I have to give a presentation, or calm my speaking nerves. Produces a message-first structure built on your core point and audience, a memorable opening and closing, delivery guidance (pace, pauses, notes vs script), a nerves-management plan, a rehearsal approach, and Q&A prep — tuned to the occasion and your experience.

# Public-Speaking Prep
A good talk isn't about being a naturally gifted speaker — it's preparation: a clear core message, a structure the audience can follow, a strong open and close, and enough rehearsal that nerves have less room. This preps your specific talk end to end, from what you're actually trying to say to handling the shaky-hands moment before you start.
## What This Skill Produces
- **A message-first structure** — your one core point and the few supporting ideas, shaped for *this* audience (not a data dump)
- **A strong open and close** — an opening that earns attention and a closing that lands the message (the two most-remembered parts)
- **Delivery guidance** — pace, pauses, emphasis, and whether to speak from notes, bullets, or (rarely) a script
- **A nerves plan** — practical techniques to manage anxiety before and during
- **A rehearsal approach** — how to practice effectively (out loud, timed, ideally recorded or to a person)
- **Q&A prep** — anticipating questions and handling the ones you can't answer
- **Slides/visual notes** — if relevant, keeping them supportive, not a script on a wall
