Understanding Eye Contact in Delivery
Effective speakers maintain appropriate eye contact to engage their audience and convey confidence. Overly frequent or infrequent eye contact can detract from the message, making the speaker seem either nervous or disconnected. In public speaking, a balanced approach involves scanning the audience naturally, establishing eye contact with different individuals without staring or avoiding gazes entirely. This enhances credibility and fosters connection with listeners.
