Conference stress

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in Management and Myths, 2004, pp 38-39 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract For organisers and speakers, both the in-house and the public conference can be a source of considerable stress. Indeed, surveys show that the most common phobia is public speaking, which may affect up to a fifth of the population. Yet the need to give speeches to big and small, known and unknown, friendly and hostile audiences grows as a requirement with promotion to senior management.
