A lot of the time, it\u2019s silly and imperfect. But that\u2019s what makes it so awesome! You see, most people see the finished product and say \u201cWow, I could never do that.\u201d And guess, what, neither can I!<\/p>\n<p>Let me let you in on a little secret: Even the pros who look perfect and polished in the finished product make mistakes. We screw up. And things may seem all cut up and professional. But in reality, we shoot take after take until we get it right.<\/p>\n<p>Watch the video above to take a behind-the-scenes look into my life as a teacher and speaker.<\/p>\n<p>Being a great teacher has almost nothing to do with perfection \u2014 the video is proof of that. But the greatest teachers and trainers I know have learned that really connecting with people has everything to do with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/authenticity-most-important-quality-as-speaker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">authenticity<\/span><\/a>. Read on below to learn more.<\/p>\n<h2>What does authenticity really mean?<\/h2>\n<p>Authenticity is a word that you hear flying around spiritual communities self-help gatherings and psychology offices all the time. But what does authenticity really mean?<\/p>\n<p>Being your true, authentic self is about presence. It\u2019s about living in the moment with conviction and confidence and staying true to yourself. And, it means that sometimes you\u2019ll mess up and say something stupid (like I did!) and that\u2019s OK!<\/p>\n<p>Whether you stand on a stage or speak on a screen, being authentic is about sharing who you really are. Your audience doesn\u2019t really care about how perfect your PowerPoint presentation is. What hooks them and keeps them coming back is how you relate to them, human to human. This idea is something that I dive deeper into in my free web class,<em> \u201cTeach And Get Rich\u201d<\/em>. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/tagr\/invite\/?utm_campaign=tagr_content&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_content=tagr-blog-teachers-and-trainers-never-forget&amp;utm_term=bodycta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Click here to learn more about it<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now let\u2019s dive into why authenticity always wins!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>3 Ways Authenticity Makes You a Better Trainer or Public Speaker:<\/h2>\n<h3>1. People gravitate toward authenticity.<\/h3>\n<p>People relate to people \u2014 not the manufactured version we sometimes try to portray.<\/p>\n<p>Embrace your flaws (we all have them) and talk about your problems. Then, share how you overcame those challenges. That\u2019s your secret sauce!<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6272\" src=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/2020\/08\/People-gravitate-toward-authenticity-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/People-gravitate-toward-authenticity-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/People-gravitate-toward-authenticity-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/People-gravitate-toward-authenticity-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/People-gravitate-toward-authenticity.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. Transparency helps your audience connect with you.<\/h3>\n<p>Some say great speakers are honest. I say they\u2019re transparent. Honesty is when you share the truths you feel others should know. Transparency is when people can see for themselves the truths that they need to know.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re transparent, you put yourself in your audience\u2019s shoes and allow your audience to see themselves in you. The more they relate to you, the more they trust you, the more they will want more of what you\u2019re offering!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-6274\" src=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/4\/files\/2020\/08\/Transparency-helps-your-audience-connect-with-you-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/Transparency-helps-your-audience-connect-with-you-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/Transparency-helps-your-audience-connect-with-you-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/Transparency-helps-your-audience-connect-with-you-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/files\/2020\/08\/Transparency-helps-your-audience-connect-with-you.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3. When you care about people\u2019s problems (and provide a solution) you win!<\/h3>\n<p>This one is by far the most important part of being an effective teacher: There\u2019s no use in giving a presentation if you aren\u2019t going to HELP people!<\/p>\n<p>Before you open your mouth, ask yourself: <em>Is the information I\u2019m teaching going to be useful in their lives?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Are you going to teach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/why-youre-already-qualified-to-teach\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">them a new skill<\/span><\/a>, or help them better understand a difficult subject?<\/p>\n<p>If the answer to those questions is \u201cno\u201d\u2026 stop what you\u2019re doing right now. Go back and think about how you can approach your topic in a way that will help people in the best and most valuable way possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bottom line:<\/strong> When you give a training or presentation that looks \u201cperfect,\u201d people get uncomfortable. They don\u2019t connect with you and they aren\u2019t sure why. They know you can\u2019t possibly be like this in real life, so they wonder what\u2019s hiding behind the mask of your perfect appearance, perfect words, and perfect smile.<\/p>\n<p>No one cares that you\u2019re not perfect. In fact, most people love it! Because they aren\u2019t perfect either.<\/p>\n<h2>Be The REAL You, Despite Your Imperfections<\/h2>\n<p>When you\u2019re on stage or in any setting where you\u2019re teaching a group of people, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.harveker.com\/blog\/authenticity-most-important-quality-as-speaker\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">be the REAL you<\/span><\/a>, despite your imperfections or weaknesses.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to be perfect to be effective.<\/p>\n<p>The heart of being authentic is being vulnerable. It\u2019s about making sure your outside matches your inside. When you really believe in what you\u2019re teaching, and you focus on helping others, you\u2019ll be unstoppable.<\/p>\n<p>So, are you ready to put it all on the line and show up as your true, authentic self?
