I need some advice on how to speak confidently to a room full of people.  Any tips?

One tip is to start by engaging with individuals in the room. Ask questions, listen to their responses, and build off of them to keep the conversation going. Additionally, maintain an open and relaxed body posture and avoid any negative body language, as this can make you feel less confident. Finally, practice what you are going to say in advance as this will help give you the confidence you need to speak with conviction.
