How to rock a speech you feel nervous about - ZipMinis Blog-ology: Science of Blogging
Mines the power of  presence when speaking to groups, conveying positive, powerful leadership. The  nervousness you feel inside is controllable.

Notes that six effective techniques for controlling nerves start with:
Picturing your audience on your same level, hierarchically and psychology. Center yourself on the common qualities you share with the listeners. Believe yourself equal and you will be.
Rehearsing every syllable of the presentation from start to finish. The more you practice, the less likely you will be to stumble and stammer, sounding less confident. A brief pause, however, sounds calm and confident rather than nervous.
