Planning Your Speech


It covers the basics of good presentation planning, research, writing and rehearsal: aspects youll want to consider regardless of the type of speech youre giving. It has all the headings you need arranged in 5 logical steps. Armed with information about:
WHO you are going to speak to WHAT the general or specific subject matter is HOW long the speech is to be and WHEN and WHERE it is...

HOW TO STRUCTURE A SPEECH?


Firstly, introduce yourself- people need to know who is talking to them. Then ask for their attention- You are trying to convince people of something. So, BE POLITE! Then state your position . Now make a point- then ELABORATE on it. Saying what we believe it and why other people should believe it. Make as many points as you can. The more point you make the more convincing you become. In a speech you should try to give COUNTER ARGUMENTS

HOW TO ORDER A SPEECH?


You need to grab your audience. Do this by Making your best argument first. This peoples attention. Will get

Save your second best argument for last . People will remember this. Give the rest of your arguments in order . Second best to least best.

REAHRSING AND ANALYSING


Rehearsal refines your speech. It helps you to identify areas needing work. For instance: . 1)Do the transitions from one idea to the next work? 2)Do you need to slow your speech rate? When? Are some parts better faster or slower? 3)Do you need pauses? Where? How long for? 4)Are your words clear? Can people hear you adequately? 5)Are any props you've planned fully integrated into the flow of your speech? 6)Is the ending strong? 7)Does the speech fit the time allowance?

Lets have a look at the following part of the speech:


I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self evident; that all men are treated equal. I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and operation, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my fore children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!!

What makes it interesting:


The repetition of a vey powerful phrase : I have a dream Use repetition in your speech Create a powerful phrase Repeat it again and again to make the speech powerful Use metaphors in speech It puts a picture in peoples mind and thus are very effective in speeches

TYPES OF SPEECH:1)Informative Speech


An Informative Speech is like teaching. The purpose of an informative speech is to try to teach something to the audience. The success of your speech depends on whether the audience learns what you wanted to teach them. You need to tell the audience why the information is useful and valuable. You need to make sure that the audience understands and remembers the essential information.

For e.g.
A manager informing his workforce about the new marketing strategy formulated by top level management

2) Layout Speech
An layout Speech is like giving someone directions, or explaining the location of a place. It is not very common as a formal speech, but it is something you often have to when explaining to people about a town or large building. A layout speech tells the audience where things are. It may also describe there size and shape. Gestures are very important in a layout speech. In fact, this is a good chance to practice your gestures. The success of your speech depends on whether the audience can find their way round the place you have described.

For e.g.:
An interior designer explaining the layout of the new city hall

3) Demonstration Speech
A demonstration speech is like an informative speech because you have to teach the audience about something. However, in a demonstration speech you will not just tell the audience about something, you will also tell them how to do something. Your speech will be successful if at the end of your speech the audience can do what you showed them to do.

For e.g.
A policeman telling someone how to get to the station A chef telling his audience how to make chocolate cake .

4) Persuasive Speech
A persuasive speech contains information to help people make a decision. The purpose of a persuasive speech is to persuade people to change in some way. For example, it could be to change the way they think about something. Or it could be to change the way they do things. Finally, it could be to persuade the audience to do something that they do not do now. Your speech will be successful if at the end of your speech the audience is willing to make the change you suggested. For e.g. A lawyer trying to convince a jury A salesclerk trying to persuade customers to buy a new product

An effective speech should:


1. Built trust and credibility 2. Be clear and understandable 3. Elaborative but not boring 4. Interesting but specific 5. Create the desired impact

Difference between a speech and a presentation:


The question answer session once the speech is over is not a statutory obligation while a presentation is open to the house for any question or queries. A speech is more sentiment oriented while a presentation is more object oriented. The language of a presentation has to be more simple , clear and easy while speeches use metaphors, similes, phrases and powerful words.

POINTS TO REMEMBER :
1. Introduce yourself 2. Ask the audience to listen to you 3. Make your best point 4. Elaborate on it 5. Make the rest of your points elaborating on each 6. Save your second best point until last 7. Summarize your position 8. Give a conclusion 9. Thank the audience for their attention

THANK YOU
