Me to I was nervous, but when I was 20 or so I joined a group in the UK 18 Plus (now just Plus) similar to Rotaract. I joined the committee and I was my job to stand up and announce the next weeks events, I used to imagine putting on circus masters top hat to get over my nerves. I ended up going to various conferences run on formal lines and speaking at those. I have also gone to a large number of "political" conferences run on formal lines (think roberts rules) both as delegates and standing order committees - which organize the formalities of business. I was on may way to a meeting and bumped into John Bercow on his way to the house of commons, unfortunately I did not have my copy of Citrine other wise id have asked him to sign it. Simon Lancaster has a good book on a mechanics of rhetoric and speech writing https://www.amazon.co.uk/Simon-Lancaster/e/B005NAQX8U/ref=dp_byline_cont_book_1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Simon-Lancaster/e/B005NAQX8U/ref=dp...
