For people interested in this topic I would suggest joining something like Toastmasters -- it's an international speaking club that covers everything in the slides below (and more), but also focuses on *practicing* the concepts. There is a big difference between "knowing" speaking concepts and being able to put them into practice.

[updated slides] Hi, more than one year ago, I posted on this mailing list slides I made on how to give a good talk. I received great comments. I decided to update my slides to take into account latest comments and best practices (in my opinion) I noticed in recent conferences. The slides are still under a Creative Commons License BY-NC-SA, which means you can reuse anything as long as you give credit and don't make money out of it. You can get the slides from this link http://cel.archives-ouvertes.fr/cel-00529505/en/ From this link, you will have access to the latest version (but you can still access older ones by clicking on the detailed view link). Here, I recommend to download the PowerPoint version, as the PDF version will not render the animations and the animated slides will look cluttered. Don't hesitate to send me comments.
