If you hate giving presentations, this thread is for you.

When I started my first job, I hated giving presentations. Avoided them any way I could. Nervous all day when I was due to present. At one point I understood that there's no way I could succeed in my job without getting comfortable communicating in this way.

I realized that presenting is an experience driven skill. The only way to get better at it is to do it. I was presenting maybe once a year. I saw that if I presented once a month, I could learn 12 years worth of experience in one year.
