There is really only one simple thing you need, to become a great speaker.
Knowledge of your topic.
Knowledge is power. And with power you can over-come all your fears.
Public speaking is just a way of communicating your knowledge with others. It could be as simple as standing to toast someone. If you know the person or know about that person then you have some knowledge that you are sharing with others, this is a great person, this person is celebrating a special occasion, this person is being honored for their achievement.
Standing up to cheer someone is the most basic form of public speaking. And the best part of it is you get to speak in front of a crowd and you only have to say one word, "Cheers". The second best part of it is that as soon as your done your part (you've said cheers) now all the attention has shifted from you to the person you just toasted.
