In order to overcome this, you have to think of your bosses as your equal. We are all human beings. It just so happen that they climbed the corporate ladder up ahead of you. Imagine yourself in their position. You’ll get there too, but today you have to do your job well which includes a great presentation. Formulate questions that may arise in your presentation. Be ready with answers to these questions. A well-prepared presentation includes acceptable answers to the panel’s queries. Believe in yourself and your capability. On the day of the presentation, go to a mirror and say “I can do this. I am good” over and over again. This method triggers your subconscious mind to believe what you are repetitively verbalizing.

Relax... don't think that something bad will happen to you during the presentation. If you let your fear get ahead of you then there is a great chance or possibility for the person to have an issue or a problem during the presentation. I know it's difficult for most people to gain confidence at times like this but a person must face reality. You have to go in front and do your task with your head high facing everyone. Don't let fear get ahead of you. Think of something that you know to let yourself calm down. Don't be scared of the higher-ups in front of you while doing a presentation. Just think of this as an opportunity to impress them. First of all, let your mind be at ease. Relax… don’t think that something bad will happen to you during the presentation.

Being too critical and conscious about what the panel or executives are thinking of you would not only lower your self-esteem but also jeopardize your presentation. It also wise to keep in mind that you are presenting to a group of people that have also gone through this before, and that in order to sell or present well, the presenter, in which this case is you, should also be well-groomed. Project well in front, but do not take away their focus from the presentation, remember, it is the presentation that they are after and not you, but putting on a smile and standing tall wouldn't be a bad thing either.
