The U.S. National Speakers Association (NSA) publishes a bimonthly Speaker magazine that you can read and download here. The latest issue is for March/April 2022.
There also is a worthwhile, weekly blog you can read at this web page. For example, on January 19, 2022 there is a post titled 10 Common public speaking mistakes and how to avoid them at all costs. Those are:
Starting with facts & figures
Forgetting to rehearse
Using too many filler words
Not knowing your audience
Overusing visual aids
Sharing too much information
Not including your audience
Hiding behind a podium
Speaking too fast or not speaking loudly enough
No CTA [call to action]
