15 GIFs every presenter will identify with

Did you know that public speaking has been voted more scary than claustrophobia, going to the dentist... even dying alone? It's no wonder really – public speaking puts us under pressure to inform, entertain and engage all at once. Things most of us barely manage one at a time.  

Here are 15 on-point GIFs to help you get through the process.

So you’ve been told you need to deliver a presentation. At first you're like...

 

 

Then you realise you'll have to stand up in front of loads of people...

 

 

And talk. In front of loads of people…

 

 

You’re not grown up enough for any of this.

 

 

You sit down to plan your script, but nothing comes out right.

 

 

You’re running out of time. The fear sets in.

 

 

You start to imagine your audience's reaction...

 

 

Somehow you find the strength to go on...

 

 

And suddenly, inspiration strikes...

 

 

After a few practices you're like...

 

 

Presentation day arrives, and you're nervous as hell.

 

 

But you psych yourself up...

 

 

... give it your best shot ...

 

 

... ace the presentation...

 

 

... and celebrate. Hard.

 

 

Lovely.
