Great article and very informative indeed. In addition, many people are not aware that they can join an organisation like Toastmasters International for free, where they will be introduced to a structured public speaking program.
It is formally known as the Communications and Leadership program, comprising of 10 speeches that you have to deliver within your group after which you qualify as a Competent Toastmaster (CTM) which is internationally recognized.
I would encourage all people, especially those who deem themselves as shy, to consider Toastmasters as it does wonders for your overall confidence and self-esteem.
