10.05.10 Sales Training: Overcoming Fear

Harvard  Business Review columnist JD Schramm posted an interesting look at communication fear this week.  It’s a topic I help clients with a lot in my work.

I pulled this from the article, which is both funny and on target:

“Jerry Seinfeld made famous the line about funerals and public speaking: “According to most studies, people’s number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you’re better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.””

I took the opportunity to post a response, providing some tips regarding videotaping that you might find interesting.
