Poise comes from being focused on the audience and being of service to your audience, I feel like Susan Cain does an amazing job connecting with her audience and makes it feel like a room wide conversation.
As the speech goes on, the eye contact is an invitation for the speech to become a talk with her audience. Eye contact creates a bond a with the speaker and the listeners.
When Susan is talking about chaotic situations she uses hand motions and makes her voice pitch differently and at a different speed. This helps the audience feel the chaotic energy that Susan is trying to describe.
Susan Cain shows good poise and confidence throughout her speech. She makes an impactful impression on the audience and really engages with them by moving across the stage and using gestures. She wasn’t nervous and showing bad habits, you could tell she was well prepared which led her to having good poise.
She doesn’t sway or shift, nothing distracting like that. instead she walking around the stage making sure every corner of the room gets her attention.
Her pace is pretty fast so she is able to get through all of the topics she needs to discuss during her speech, but she also takes occasional pauses to account for the laughter of the audience after a joke she makes.
Eye contact is good while public speaking because it shows the audience that the speaker knows what he or she is talking about and is confident about it.
As Susan Cain is speaking within the introduction of her TED talk she is setting her story. As she is doing this she brings life to the quote “I had this idea that camp was going to be just like this but better (Cain, Susan).” She speaks with life and confidence about her idea of the camp experience she was about to have.
The setting down of the bag is well times she does it right when it is good to pause so it doesnt seem awkward or out of place. after she sets it down she picks up her speech from there like it’s nothing.

Poise: Using Props
more
Props can be used to
focus attention on the speaking points you are trying to make,
make connection with visually oriented members of your audience,
create interest, add variety, and make your points more memorable.
add realism to your speech
Susan begins to speak of the chant they would sing at camp. Instead of stating what the chant was she brought it to life by speaking it. By way of this the audience could almost feel and envision as if they were with her. She sings the chant “R-O-W-D-I-E that’s the way we spell rowdie.” She is able to grab the audiences attention through bringing life to this moment.
Susan Cain uses life in this part of her speech by acting out what she did at summer camp. It would have been easy to just say the simple chant or cheer they did, but instead she acted it out as if she was still at summer camp. The life in her voice gave the audience a better understanding of what actually happened.
Susan does a chant that she did at her camp and while she is expressing herself during the chant her eyes get wider as her voice gets louder during the chant. This gained my focus and i’m sure the audience was hooked as well.
Right from the beginning Susan starts off her talk by looking out at the crowd. By her eyeing the whole room the audience is engaged and ready to hear what she is going to be talking about.
The way she changes the tone of her voice to a more high pitched tone shows the care and desire she truly had for reading and her longing to get to go read instead of silly chants.
Even through just the first minute and 46 seconds of her speech, it is clear to the audience that she speaks with her hands, or uses demonstrative gestures. This also runs over into the poise category, as her gestures d not take away from her presentability and, in fact, may even be aiding her overall message.
When she talks about putting her books back in her suitcase for the summer, she speaks in a more somber tone to express to the audience how saddened she was by doing this.
When Susan says the line “The right way to go,” she puts a lot of emphasis on these words. She is almost sarcastic while saying this, only because the people at camp were telling her not to read her own books. They did not agree with her introverted ways.
Susan Cain is able to bring to life her explanation of how she sat in grade school. She brings it to life by raising her tone and speaking confidently.
When she talks about the setup of her childhood classrooms(desks in row format), she moves her hands to show the “autonomous” rows. She even says “like this” after making the hand motions, prompting to the audience that she was describing something. This was a descriptive gesture.
When she is talking about kids being outliers because they are introverts her voice seems to project more as she tries to get her point across about the bias to extroverts.
She is keeping the audience interested in her Ted Talk by sounding joyful or more monotone at times depending on what she is trying to convey to the audience.
The speaker sort of bounces up and down while speeding up what she was saying because it was an exciting part of the speech. Her body language matched her pacing here.
Susan speaks mostly about introverts and extroverts and their typical habits. This is ironic because she first says that she is an introvert, yet she is giving a great talk about the same topic. The life presented in her voice would not give the audience the idea that she is an introvert.
Susan Cain speaks of her husband and laughs at how he is an extrovert, but she still loves him. She brings life to this moment through the personal connection to the crowd. I feel as though people in the crowd can relate to her and feel the life she is bringing to the light.
Here we hear one of those nervous words or placeholders that some speakers repeat to the point that it is distracting or takes away from their poise and message, that being “um.” However, with Susan she merely uses it as a brief moment to collect her thoughts and then bring about the message to the audience. She uses it a few times throughout the speech but keeps on rolling and does not let it become an obstacle for her or the audience.
When she is giving an example of something she seems to talk much quicker. I think this might be due to the fact that it is not as important to her message.
As Susan continues through her TED talk, she begins to speak of psychology. She quotes “It turns out” with an emphasis. I do not mean relating to her voice, but the notice to the life she is presenting here. She speaks life and intrigued me (and probably the crowd) to listen to what she is about to say about the psychology.
When she talks about different people who have accomplished great things in history, she makes the audience laugh by talking about how they are mostly introverted.
Adding a question, open ended or not, can add life into a speech. Giving the audience time to think about these questions can give them a better connection to the topic at hand.
Cain begins to read about an artifact of information. She quotes from it “Character the Grandest Thing in The World.” She brings life to this quote because she is citing it.
“So now I would like to share with you what is in my suitcase today (Cain, Susan).” Susan brings life to this moment as she is about to present what she has in her suitcase. This can intrigue the audience to be present and pay attention for what is to come.
Susan Cain brings life to the TED Talk while she is speaking of her grandfather. She speaks with life and happiness about her grandfather. She speaks of his belongings and passions. Life is filled within her voice. She quotes “But he also loved his congregation (Cain, Susan).”
Susan talks about here that her grandfather gave many different speeches, but did not always have the best eye contact. Even though he struggled with this he still could deliver his talks.
Her energy shifts and she becomes introverted as she is speaking about being an introvert and how she had to make a shift in her work that is a more difficult task for an introvert versus an extrovert.
When speaking about living in a cabin in the woods she is speaking as a joke (for both introverts and extroverts) and for a sense of humor in her speech
She is at the same pace mostly for the entire speech. She does a great job at staying at this pace and also knows when she should speed up and slow down. Which is only a couple times.
When talking about extroverts, Susan Cain seems to speed up compared to slowing down when talking about introverts. She seemed more excited to talk about introverts and this could give reason to the change of pace.
