The King's Speech is one of my favourite films because it is both funny and sensitive.It is not a film just about royalty.This film is more a human story played by excellent actors at the peak of their craft.In the opening scene we can see how it will be difficult for GeorgeVI, the new king, after EdwardVIII abdicated and renounced the throne.Is it possible to take on the responsibility of royal duties with a speech impediment ? The new king has proved it with courage and, above all, with a great wife and an excellent therapist.The film shows his effort, his courage.There is no special effect, no action but it is exciting.When you watch the film, you are in London with the king telling: “you can do it”.Moreover, the film is a visual experience with foggy streets.I do not know a lot of this period of British history but I think it is faithful to reality.Finally, I intend to watch it again as I loved it.This is a biopic about how King George VI, the father of Queen Elizabeth II, overcame his stuttering problem.Widely considered by all but his father unfit to be king, George is reluctantly thrust unto the throne and into the spotlight after his brother is forced to abdicate.Overshadowed on the global stage by powerful orators like Adolph Hitler and Benito Mussolini, the King relies on the help of a little-known Australian speech therapist named Lionel Logue to find his voice and courageously lead his people into the most devastating war humanity has ever faced.This is a powerful, hilarious and deeply moving story, told against the backdrop of a critical juncture in modern history, of the emergence of a deep friendship out of a professional relationship between two men who would otherwise never have socially interacted.The screenplay, written by David Seidler(who also wrote Tucker: The Man and his Dream), is excellent.The dry British wit is hilarious.I was literally slapping my knee during some of the scenes.Tom Hooper(Elizabeth I)does a superb job directing this movie.The buildup to the climactic finale is skillfully executed and prompted the audience to erupt into spontaneous ap(Apparently, this also happened at the Roy Thomson Hall premiere.)Geoffrey Rush(Elizabeth: The Golden Age)does a fantastic job as Lionel Logue and Colin Firth(A Single Man)is excellent as King George VI.I saw the second public screening of this movie at the Ryerson Theater during the Toronto International Film Festival(TIFF).Tom Hooper was present to introduce the movie.He was joined by Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush after the movie ended for a brief Q&A.It turns out that David Seidler also had a stuttering problem as a child and drew inspiration from the king's struggle.Early in his career he wanted to write a screenplay about it.He dutifully asked the Queen Mother for permission.She agreed but told him “not in my lifetime”.Little did he know she would live to be 101 and he would have to wait another 30 years.Another interesting tidbit we learned was that near the end of the shoot, the crew finally located one of Lionel Logue's grandsons, who just so happened to live about 10 minutes away from the director.They got access to Lionel's diaries and correspondence and managed to incorporate some of it into the script.This movie is an unqualified must see.This review may contain spoilers.What makes the movie fascinating is that it's based on a true story, and from what I heard, it's based on a play, and its biggest achievement is that it never feels stagey, that it's entertaining, that it's got some sublime acting, mostly Firth and Bonham-Carter, though Rush is very good, too.In general, it's a nice film.The one thing that hurts it a little is the setting, the fact that had it been based on lesser humans, it might have had a stronger impact.Seeing the royal nature of things, after being exposed to so much of this type of drama in the last three or four decades, feels a bit boring.I couldn't help but noticing how hard the cinematographer tried to make it look different, and for a while I thought I had kept my shades on because the film look so dark.Now, looking at what works, as I mentioned before Firth is spectacular, giving a very natural and human spin to what could have a tired turn.We have seen how hard actors tried to show their technical skills, and it's Firth's gift that he can make a stutter emotional and frustrating, that we see how his soul hurts, and his spirit breaks over and over, as he tries to overcome his disability.He knows where he belongs, the pressures he is under, and he hates the spotlight, and all of this is perfectly reflected in his performance.Coming in to give it an interesting balance is the subtle and affecting work by Bonham-Carter, showing an amazing range and getting further from the loud histrionics of both “Potter” and “Wonderland”, two great turns, but it's her sweet support, both in the film, and in her acting that is rewarding.She is perfectly attuned to her part and is a great partner to Firth.Both of them do act like full human beings who just happen to be royalty.She had plenty of practice before getting here.Firth is perfect in this type of role.Coming so soon after “A Single Man”, we're not truly surprised Firth could do any better.In fact, it's just a different type of role, and he handles it with so much aplomb that it feels natural, noticeable without being too much, interesting, one piece of acting that will eventually be mentioned among the best of someone's career, or of anything in the movies.In this case, it doesn't matter what the man is wearing, his soul and his pain are real, and his desire to overcome his obstacles and please those around him, most importantly his closest family and friends is what fuels the intensity of the performance.Every syllable, every gesture, every look, and every exchange between him and the other actors has a purpose and never loses its direction and focus.That is what makes the conclusion so satisfying and appeals to us.This film doesn't forget the human connection with its audience.A few years ago “The Queen” explored the inner conflicts of a woman who wasn't sure of her station, and we have seen “Elizabeth” and the political drama of the period, but it's the human side that is so often neglected, and “The King's Speech” has made sure it remains at the forefront of the main crisis.It's critical that we like this man, regardless of who he is, and we do.We want him to succeed, to have his “Rocky” moment, and the question is how much are you going to enjoy the ending? Very nice indeed.This is based on the historical events of how in the 1930's Britain's sovereignty was faced with a leadership crisis.King George V(Michael Gambon)is rapidly ageing and looking for a

heir

to

his

throne.American woman who has already been divorced and remarried.The king's second son, Albert Frederick Arthur George(Colin Firth)or Bertie as his family calls him, seems like a more sensible choice but he is entirely lacking in confidence because of his terrible speech impediment.No amount of treatment has been able to cure Bertie of his condition.His wife Elizabeth Bowes Lyon(Helena Bonham Carter)seeks help from an unlikely source: a lower-class Australian speech therapist, Lionel Logue(Geoffrey Rush).Bertie is initially reluctant because Lionel's unorthodox approach forces him out of his comfort zone.With the impending rise of Hitler though, Bertie begins to understand the urgency to inspire people's confidence in the British government and learns to trust Lionel.The King's Speech, a thoroughly entertaining slice of history, is just the third feature from director Tom Hooper.Yet it has still been crafted with a particular amount of delicacy.It's been photographed by cinematographer Danny Cohen with mostly drab colours.The overarching grey skies and dark textures of Bertie's suit are some of the subtle visual devices used to convey Britain's sense of dread and uncertainty at this time.The atmosphere is complimented by the pivotal subtext of David Seidler's intelligent screenplay, specifically the way people are won and lost on what they see and hear.Bertie's father describes how politicians are now nothing but actors because of technological improvements, like the radio and the way that this has, for better or worse, drawn the public closer to the lives of their leaders.It's an idea conveyed most extensively through the progressive friendship of Bertie and Lionel, allowing the film to succeed as a historical piece and equally as a film about social interaction.The sessions shared between Lionel and Bertie are the most crucial aspect of the narrative and the experience of both these terrific actors make these scenes shine.Firth, a current favourite for the Best Actor Oscar, has rarely been better.He has played critically suppressed men before, like his nominated performance in A Single Man, but his performance is distinguished through a number of extraordinary physical constraints.His stammering alone is heartbreaking to watch and listen to.Yet the way Firth struggles internally with his own body, trying to wrench the words out from his lungs, is what makes his work truly powerful.There are more poignant details revealing his isolation from his family and his rivalry with his inept brother too.But his role is enhanced most significantly by his palpable chemistry with Lionel, his antithesis.Whereas Firth is appropriately contained, Rush provides a wonderful burst of energy to the film.The script offers him endless opportunities for quiet humour and his comic timing remains impeccable.“You're peculiar”, Bertie tells him, to which Lionel replies so finely: “I take that as a compliment”.Lionel's charisma and humour is imperative in asserting Bertie's insecurities but also the corridor through which he will draw himself emotionally closer to the common man.There are also some unexpected angles to this friendship too, like whether Lionel is in some respects trying to influence the monarchy by coaching Bertie.In terms of writing and performances，国王的的演讲【二】

This is truly an elegant and scrumptious movie!Everything about it feels lavish and luxurious.From the direction, production, acting and everything else!It might seem a bit as a by-the-numbers film, but believe me, it more than makes up with its high pedigree.Colin Firth is really great in his performance and completely deserved the Oscar he so rightfully won.But it is not just him, because he is anchored by a stunning and wonderful supporting cast, from Helena Bonham Carter(who should have also won a Supporting Actress Oscar)to the amazing Jeffrey Rush, Derek Jakobi, Michael Gambon, Guy Pearce and Jennifer Ehle.While I was rooting for David Fincher to win the Oscar for Best Director, I am not sorry that Tom Hooper received it, because he deserved it just as much.Tom Hooper has been a favourite of mine for many years now.He might be best known to North American audiences for his spectacular work for HBO, with the multiple-award winning mini-series “Elizabeth I” and “John Adams” as well as TV movies such as “Longford” and the small movie gem that was “The Damned United” with Michael Sheen.The same goes for Best Movie Of The Year.I still think that “The Social Network” should have won, but “The King's Speech” is a worthy choice also.Beyond all the quirky episodes and soaring moments of the movie, this is at its hear a story about friendship, trust, loyalty and what those ingredients add up to in someone's life, not matter his/her station and/or position in society.If you haven't already done so, do yourself a favour and go see this wonderful movie.These days, when everything seems to be ruled by the lowest common denominator, this movie, “The King's Speech”, stands as an example of what happens when both substance and style stand for something...namely quality!

第三篇：国王的演讲观后感

《国王的演讲》观后感

影片以历史上英国乔治六世战胜口吃成功进行演讲为题材，讲述了一个国王战胜自己的故事。再一次闭幕演讲中，还是王子艾伯特的乔治六世，因为当时还是口吃，让他出尽洋相。自那以后，他的妻子一直帮助她寻找一名出色的语言治疗师。直到找到在澳大利亚出生的语言治疗师——莱昂纳尔·罗格。父亲乔治五世于1936年去世后本应该是由当时还未称王的艾伯特的哥哥继位，然而哥哥爱德华八世选择了退位，担子落在了并不想成为国王的艾伯特身上。最尴尬的是乔治六世口吃。

电影围绕乔治六世和语言治疗师罗格之间的友谊以及乔治六世为克服口吃所做的努力展开了细致入微的描写。

在《国王的演讲》这部影片中，令我记忆最深的人物是：国王—乔治六世。

从国王的口吃来讲，是复杂的语言失调症，与后天因素有很大的关系，各种负面的心理情绪与外部压力，都会加剧症状的恶化，所以首先要纠其病因，要打开心结，治疗心理创伤。

在乔治五世过世之后，艾伯特（乔治六世）向罗格袒露病因：母亲爱哥哥不爱自己，连保姆也不爱他甚至常常让他饿肚子，明明是左撇子却硬要被掰成用右手，于是他在强势父亲的光环下胆怯寡言，在兄长的不屑和嘲笑下丧失信心。因而他害怕面对父亲，面对兄长和公众。每个人都会有自己的心里缺陷，怯懦也是每个人都有，问题在于是否面对，是否担当。当兄长因一些不利于国家的原因选择退位时，当国家和人民需要他的紧急关头。他不断的努力战胜自己的缺陷，他对国家和人民的责任感是他战胜自己的动力源泉。

这对我们的启示是：我们要有责任感，要敢于担当，不要轻言放弃，只要努力就会有奇迹。

第四篇：国王的演讲观后感

《国王的演讲》观后感

优秀的演讲能力对一个领袖来说极其重要，漫漫历史，无数伟大的声音依旧回荡在耳边: 乔治·华盛顿的首任总统就职演讲，托马斯·杰斐逊的首任总统就职演讲，马丁·路德金的《I Have A Dream》……他们的感召力不仅是演讲口才和演讲技巧的登峰造极，更是伟大的思想、情操、责任以及人格魅力的完美结合，给人以信念和力量。

而领袖作为最重要的公众人物，通过演讲给公民带去信念和力量亦是其不可推卸的责任。《国王的演讲》围绕英国国王乔治六世的口吃问题展开，讲述了他生命中最为重要的部分：他在妻子的坚持与大夫的帮助下，经过训练，克服了在公众前讲话口吃的毛病，终于在国难当头，政局危机下，发表慷慨激昂的著名演讲，鼓舞了当时二战中的英国军民。影片细腻稳重地把二战那段历史呈现给了大家，在我看来，这是一个重要的历史时代，也是乔治六世作为一个普通人的个人心灵奋斗史。

作为国家精神上的领袖，国王在国民信仰中扮演着至高无上的角色，而面对大众传媒，这种形象是被放大的，所以，他必须做他人民心中的楷模。尽管他是一个普通人，他缺乏自信，他胆怯，他口吃，但是，他所处的位子不允许他在臣民面前呈现这些东西！王权和大众传媒把他架到了一个尴尬的位置上，他所承受的压力是巨大的，但他必须征服自己!所以，虽然大多时候，《国王的演讲》会被贴上历史剧的标签，但在我看来，它更是一部优秀的励志片。

我们都是普通人，我们或许像曾经的乔治六世一样缺乏自信，我们很多时候会感到无助、恐慌，可是毕竟，我们肩上负有责任。我们没有选择，也不甘做一个怯懦之人。那就征服自己的内心吧！相对于停留在怯懦之时的漫漫恐慌无助，艰苦的奋斗之路会是一种幸福。

喜欢《国王的演讲》，喜欢《当幸福来敲门》，它们让我明白，人的承受能力远远超出我们的想象，人的潜力亦无穷。所以，奋斗之路，我们有何畏惧！人生没有过不去的坎，只有过不去的人，而那个人，常常就是我们自己。不屈服于命运的人啊，就征服自己的内心，选择了远方，就风雨兼程。

第五篇：国王的演讲观后感

一、简介

《国王的演讲》是由汤姆·霍伯指导，科林·费斯担当主演的英国电影，整部电影以叙述故事的形式，讲述了英国女王伊丽莎白二世的父亲乔治六世国王的故事。本片于第35届多伦多电影节获得了最高荣誉观众选择大奖。在2011年第83届奥斯卡提名名单上，《国王的演讲》获得12项提名，并最终拿到最佳影片、最佳导演、最佳男主角、最佳原创剧本四项大奖。科林·费斯凭借本片获得金球奖最佳戏剧片男主角。影片还获得金球奖、美国制片人公会、导演公会和影视演员公会奖等多项提名和奖项。

约克郡公爵（科林•费斯 Colin Firth 饰）因患口吃，无法在公众面前发表演讲，这令他接连在大型仪式上丢丑。贤惠妻子伊丽莎白（海伦娜•伯翰•卡特 Helena Bonham Carter 饰）为了帮助丈夫，到处寻访名医，但是传统的方法总不奏效。一次偶然的机会，她慕名来到了语言治疗师莱纳尔罗格（杰弗里•拉什 Geoffrey Rush 饰）的宅邸，传说他的方式与众不同。虽然公爵对罗格稀奇古怪的招法并不感兴趣，首次诊疗也不欢而散。但是，公爵发现在聆听音乐时自己朗读莎翁竟然十分流利。这让他开始信任罗格，配合治疗，慢慢克服着心理的障碍。乔治五世驾崩，爱德华八世继承王位，却为了迎娶寡妇辛普森夫人不惜退位。艾伯特临危受命，成为了乔治六世。他面临的最大挑战就是如何在二战前发表鼓舞人心的演讲……（他是约克公爵，他是艾伯特王子，他是乔治五世和玛丽王后的第二个儿子，在家人眼里，他还是那个长不大的“伯蒂”（科林·菲斯）。伯蒂有个聪明过人且十分受欢迎的哥哥，按大英皇室的继承顺位来排，怎么看伯蒂也不太可能插队成为国王。这对自幼就害羞孱弱的伯蒂来说，反倒是件好事，正因为这样，他被允许在第一次世界大战时在英国皇家海军服役，娶到了梦中情人伊丽莎白·鲍斯-莱昂（海琳娜·伯汉·卡特）为妻，并且有了两个活泼可爱的小女儿伊丽莎白和玛格利特。如果不是哥哥爱德华八世为了美人而放弃江山的话，伯蒂也许永远过着自由自在的生活。然而，他毕竟还是躲不过宿命，1937年5月12日，伯蒂在威斯敏斯特大教堂登基，改名为乔治六世。

如果说王位是个诅咒，那么对于乔治六世则尤是如此，因为他自小就患有严重的口吃，不但发表讲话时非常吃力，有时连几句很简单的话都结结巴巴地讲不顺当。曾经还是艾伯特王子时，他在“大英帝国展览”闭幕演讲席上就因为口吃而在公众面前出尽洋相，自那以后妻子一直帮他寻找治疗，然而偏方秘法试遍，他的口吃却依旧不见丝毫好转。假设乔治六世只是个普通人，假设他所统治的不列颠还无坚不摧，那他大不了深入简出噤口不言，也许也能不偏不斜混一辈子。然而，就在他继承大统的两年后，第二次世界大战爆发了。

头顶，是敌机的轰隆盘旋；眼前，是军队的节节溃败。人民迫切需要一个能够带领国家迈向胜利的精神楷模。如果不能够在乱世鼓舞英国人民的斗志，那么名望已达最低点的英国王室似乎再也没有存在的必要。幸运的是，因为妻子的坚决不放弃，乔治六世终于找到了出色的语言治疗师莱昂纳尔·罗格（杰弗瑞·拉什）。在妻子和莱昂纳尔的帮助下，国王的口吃大为好转，并在随后发表了著名的圣诞讲话，鼓舞了所有水深火热中的英国军民……）

二、心理看点

自己的尊严受到了侵害往往被认为是别人造成的，实际上换个角度去想，这种结果很可能和我们自身关系最大。有的人被别人奚落是穷光蛋，是不是那个人其实是因为自己懒惰不干事呢？这个片子中，口吃就是别人瞧不起王子乔治六世的主要原因，那么根本原因呢？其实是王子自己对自己的一种不肯定，一种自卑。

只要不是绝症，人类总有办法去解决。王子一直被困于口吃，不是因为这个毛病，而是因为他不能好好正视自己，虽然想维护尊严，但自己却不相信自己。所以说，从本质来看，口吃只是一个表象的高山，真正的崎岖山路是王子内心的怯懦和纠结。而演讲，则是王子尊严的一种外化的形式。

其实整部影片都是王子在慢慢找回自我，正视自我的一个漫长过程。从最开始站在演

讲台上口吃到一个单词吐出来都要停顿很久，到之后尝试一些方法去解决，屡屡受挫，包括其中有医生让他含着几个玻璃球来平息紧张的心情，其实都被王子曲解为羞辱他尊严的方式，而不是治疗的手段。暴躁冲动的情绪不单单只是王子的性格部分之一，可以说是王子为了守护自己尊严的一种粗制的“防护罩”罢了。因为在很多场面我们能看到，比如给自己的两个女儿讲睡前故事，和妻子在一起说悄悄话的时候，甚至在弟弟不想继承王位的时候，王子的形象是和善的，是体贴的，是很顾全大局的。

治疗师莱昂的出现是故事走向的一个拐点。各种奇怪的方法都用了上来。其实同样的我们看到，初次和莱昂的时候，莱昂的方法同样被王子曲解为侮辱自己尊严的方式，而之后他再一次讲话失败后，被逼到绝境的他走投无路了，返回来去听自己的录音时，才看到了曙光，才从心里改变了看法，才开始慢慢正视自己，才真正的为了维护自己的自尊而行动。

在莱纳对公爵的治疗过程中，莱纳一直强调彼此的平等，这从他对称呼的要求可以看出来。其实在这方面，莱纳是在试图拉近与公爵的距离，让公爵意识到对方并不是在取笑他，而是以一种朋友的姿态在帮助他，增强了彼此之间的信任感，从而对治疗起了积极的作用。影片中在莱纳直言不讳地讲出公爵应该当国王时两人激烈争吵的场景，其实也是莱纳在努力让公爵直面自己的内心，让他克服自己的心理障碍，找回自我，找回自尊与自信。这也是治疗过程中的一个转折点。

（值得注意的还有一点，就是王子的妻子。妻子在里面的出现频率看似很多，其实我认为她的作用只有两个。首先，很多医生与王子的见面貌似都是妻子主动去联系的，包括在见莱昂的时候，妻子走过大街，进入一个偏僻的邮局，又乘坐了一个狭小仿佛年久失修的小电梯，这一系列的画面让我感觉妻子对丈夫默默的爱，而反之则体现了王子对于守护自己尊严而造成错误的固步自封。如果说王子一开始还主动去找医生，那么之后一系列艰难的转变就变得令人费解了，正由于他自身的排斥和被动，才有后面情节的步步深入。第二，妻子是王子尊严的一种寄托。这是很人性化的一个考量。如果说王子在任何地方都四处碰壁，被排挤，那么指不定这部片子最后可能发展成王子内心极度黑暗化，酿成一些不堪的后果。简而言之，妻子的塑造，也是为了展现王子温文的一面，光明的一面，暗示观众其实这个王子他最后能变得更好更完善，剧情的发展也不会仅仅因为一个莱昂就突然改变方向。妻子中间的润滑作用也很关键。）

一旦开始学会正视自己，开始正确“守护”自尊后，很多事就开始迎刃而解了，王子口吃的问题也在慢慢解决。一切都是水到渠成的走向。那么再加入一个坎儿或者说波动也有必要了。于是父亲的逝世，王位接替从而衍生的问题开始造成影响。我们可以把之前的情节看做王子自己正确对待尊严的维护。那么之后就是王子如何在外人面前体现尊严。母亲的冷漠，哥哥的嘲笑都是外部挫伤王子尊严的原因。那么如何体现自己的尊严？于是又回到了片头开始：演讲。尊严原本是个很抽象的东西，如何体现它肯定要好好选择。

演讲是一个人去流畅的演说，那么这恰恰是王子一直欠缺的，于是把王子的尊严融入到演讲这个载体后，我们最后能看到，努力突破自我，完整演讲完，甚至达到了鼓舞人心效果的王子找回了自尊的结果。他的演讲的确是振奋了那些即将上战场的士兵，同时，他的演讲使得他的家人由衷欣慰，更本质的是，王子找回了自我，找回了自尊。

三、对大学生的启示

1、自尊与自信：其实真的只是单单的一个演讲吗？不是，是对一个人内心自尊的完整性表达。而往往我们在想塑造一个人物由缺失自尊到自尊的完整时，一般的角度都会去切入一个贫苦的地位低下的往往要去虚构的一个底层角色，然后

通过一系列的坎坷，一系列的戏剧冲突来实现主题的表达。也许那样的电影更

加吸引人眼球，也许那样的电影更能引起人们同情的共鸣。但是在《国王的演

讲》这部影片中，主角是我们平凡人仿佛只能用来瞻仰的英国皇室家族里的王

子，如此地位高到常人不敢触及的形象，然而他却和很多人一样，也会被人鄙

夷，也会有难以启齿的缺陷，也会为了战胜缺憾努力，这些细节，使得我们发

现，其实那么高高在上的人同样有血有肉，同样一直以自己的方法去捍卫自己的尊严。

敢于担当，一种责任感： 2、1、职责所在，必须发出“你自己的声音”

公众演讲让乔治六世遭受讥笑、尊严受伤，演讲成了他的心理阴影和深恶痛绝的事情。可是作为一国之君，他无法逃脱。老国王过世，兄长辞去国王之位，英国已经向希特勒宣战… … 所有的一切都要求乔治六世必须担当起来国王的重任。于是，才引出电影这一段关于演讲的教与学的故事。

现在的企业里，一步步向上走的领导者们都会发现：凝聚人心已经成为最重要的工作之

一。一企之长，恰如一国之君，不可能躲在办公室里暗自操作公司，你必须到一线去，站到前面去，面对所有团队和员工演讲，为他们展示愿景、鼓舞士气。即使你在重压之下，还要粉碎不利谣言，重整团队雄风，指引未来方向。这时，演讲就是你的必备利器。

那些具有“反英雄主义视角”的专家们，更倾向于企业管理者成为“沉静领导”（Leading Quietly）。这种深思熟虑、务实可用的领导模式提倡采用细小的、谨慎的步骤来解决复杂的大问题。可是在当今的很多行业和专业里，这种领导模式让人担忧。

人心复杂，史无前例；众口难调，意见不一。谁来担当？谁来领导？不能指望员工自发地产生蓬勃的凝聚力，也不能总是指望你的得力副手可以代表你发表言论。你必须发出“你自己的声音”，这是职责所在。

2、放下你的身份和既有习惯

国王最终放下了高高在上的身份，学会了与老师平等对话。他随之克服了自己的坏脾气，征服了自暴自弃和恐惧，最终成为了一个内心强大、勇敢担当的君主。可是，如果国王不肯屈就，也不愿意躬身去到罗格医生的住所接受辅导，不和罗格先生平等对话，那么，还会有后来那次成功的“英王圣诞演讲”吗？

如果一个演讲学习者无法放低自己的身份，学习将收效甚微。因为在演讲的过程中，你会出错，而且一出错就会被老师揪出来并纠正。你会出丑，动用你所有现有能力还是错漏百出。要是维护你的尊贵颜面的话，你就寸步难行。另外，你要改变你既有的那些习惯，忘掉你以前的方法，即使这些方法曾一度很有用。在老师一个完整的教学体系前，很多既有习惯

都要清零而重新来过。你如果高高在上自以为是，老师又能有什么办法？

在演讲的教学之中，学员与老师之间最好的关系将是朋友关系。它是平等的，不论你是高管还是多显赫的职位，在接受演讲能力的辅导之时，都必须放下你的身份和既有习惯。这样你才能放松、愉快，而不被矜持和有所保留的态度所羁绊。

3、不盲从名师及其教练方法

一个拥有爵位头衔的医生为国王治疗口吃，不仅要国王吸烟，说可以放松喉咙，还要求国王口含7颗玻璃珠子来练习说话，国王羞愧和痛苦难耐，大发雷霆，夺门而去。医生无奈地对说王后说：这可是古希腊的时候就有的方法。

即使翻书和上网，我们也可以轻易找到1000种提高演讲的方法。可是，它们有效吗？有一些方法和技巧的目的仅仅是让学习者有事可做。至于这些小把戏是否有效，并没有严谨地检验和测量。"

比如克服紧张的方法可谓繁多且五花八门，：上场前大口深呼吸、把听众当成傻子、想象听众都光着身子、把目光放在听众的头顶… … 其实，上场前大口深呼吸往往让心跳更为狂乱。如果真把听众当成傻子或者什么可笑的东西，你实际上是严重认知不协调。一个在欺骗自己的人，敢说能不欺骗听众吗？！把目光放在听众头顶，听众难道不会感到有点怪怪的吗？这样不是在扼杀和听众目光的交流吗？

演讲涉及从生理到心理的复杂过程，每个学习者在选择练习方法的时候，不是越多越好。审慎的态度去看待那些演讲的8个妙招和10条秘笈，学习之前做做功课，可以粗略了解一下每种方法后面的生理和心理机制。那些仅仅鼓吹让你薪水成倍增长的演讲培训课，如果你不是财迷心窍的话，应该不会对它那么激动。

4、练习，而且最好是每天

失望的国王在家听罗格先生给他的录音，惊讶的发现这个罗格先生很不简单。再次屈尊来找罗格先生，并请罗格先生为他治疗。临走时国王说：“我下周来找你”。罗格先生说：不，我每天都要见你。

大量的练习，在教练指导下的练习，是成功演讲的必经之路。实际上，演讲不好的人，往往最惧怕练习。他们在练习的过程中往往最不投入。有时，是因为缺乏想象力带来的障碍，他们很难把练习的环境和即将演讲的场景联系起来。但更多的时候，是他们懒惰，又缺乏对训练的尊重，练习时很没有激情。或者根本上就是有意的不留时间来练习。没时间，成了最常见的借口，尤其是商务人士。但这也是我作为一个教练最不相信的借口。国王都要每天练习，谁也不能例外。跟大家说，可以不练习的理由有两个：要么是你还可以忍受自己糟糕的表现；要么你对自己的表现浑然不觉。

演讲能力很好的人，往往爱制造一种假象，有意地不提及自己演练的苦闷和提升的艰辛，这势必让听众误以为他的演讲能力就是天生的。其实，从国家总统到江湖郎中，他们能滔滔不绝的说话且能言之有物，都是练习的结果。至于引人入胜、激动人心的演讲，更要专业的训练和相当长时间的练习。

除了专门的讲话训练，阅读、写作、思考、选择有优秀表达能力的人进行交谈，都是提升演讲能力的好方法。

5、把心放在听众那边

国王在王后和老师的陪伴下，走进一个精心准备的小房间里，国王的“圣诞演讲”开始广播直播。罗格先生就站在国王的话筒前面，象极了一个乐队指挥。罗格先生轻声说：“排除杂念，说给我听，说给我这个朋友听… …”。

演讲紧张，是因为现场有听众，而不一定是演讲者心里有听众。糟糕的演讲人是不关心听众的，即使“他们”让“他”汗流浃背。这是一个难以解释的悖论吗？

演讲的紧张来自对自我控制缺乏信心，来自能否取得演讲效果的担心，来自一大堆心理学上可以讲上一天的原因和理由。但是，演讲人只是担心自己而不担心听众，这是演讲的头号杀手。“你的演讲对听众有什么好处？”这个简单的问题，如果在演讲之后去问这个演讲人，这就是一个让多数演讲人马上发懵的问题。如果放在演讲之前问，它又是一个对演讲者有高度启发的问题。说不定演讲者就在这句话的启发之下，马上要调整自己的演讲了。

Jerry Weissman在他的经典著作《Presenting to Win》中，几乎用了两个章节的篇幅谈“听众至上”和“这对你（听众）有何好处？”。别把听众当成敌人。因为你的敌人大概永远都不会给你机会，让你在他们面前侃侃而谈。听众是演讲者的朋友、部下、师长、臣民、同僚、亲人。所以，把心放在听众那边，尊重他们，并对他们讲述有价值有意义的事情。

把心放在听众那边，他们不是你的敌人，而是你的朋友。这是最强大的演讲技巧，甚至也是一种使人更加快乐和充实的思维。

每一次诊疗的时机都设计得恰到好处。第一次见面是在国王在皇家博览会的公开演讲失败之后，国王对医生不卑不亢的态度和新奇的治疗方法大为反感；第二次见面，则是国王在受到父王训斥之后，想听录音发泄，结果却听到了自己流畅的朗诵，然后开始认真地跟医生进行各种练习；第三次是父王病逝之后，国王对医生彻底敞开心扉，“不谈私事”的他坦诚了口吃的心理成因；第四次则是参加完王兄和辛普森夫人举行的派对之后，不愿面对自己有可能即位成为国王的他与医生彻底闹翻；第五次则是国王登基之后吗，把第一次见面时打赌输的钱交给医生，暗示医生杰弗里·拉什

已经得到自己全部的信任。不难看出，国王和医生诊疗互动的过程完全同历史事件、国王人生以及思想的重大转变有机结合在了一起，不仅让人看到国王战胜口吃的惊人毅力，同时也让人看到他实现国王身份的心理认同的伟大转变。
