Greetings & Salutations
To catch the listener's interest you may want to try a few techniques. You could ask a rhetorical question or start with a short story that will pull the listener in, as long as you follow two basic rules:
1) The story or question you choose is germane to your topic.2) You finish the story or answer your question in your conclusion.
The BodyThe Body
Move the topic from general to specific.
Most speakers give a general background of the topic.
Narrow and focus to the topics as explained earlier. You should be very careful to follow the pattern as outlined in your introduction. If you tell that you are going to discuss issues A, B and C, you must discuss A, B, C, not B, C, A or C, B, A.
The pattern or construction of the body is an important issue, it must be logical and rationale.
Methods of Presentation
- Chronological order - the time order in which events took place.
- Cause to effect - show how your topic was the result of essential events. - Climax order - work from the least important information to the most important.
- Anti-climax order - work from the most to least important information.
- Spatial order - describe the physical setup of your topic.
The Conclusion (Epilogue)The Conclusion (Epilogue)
Finally, you move to your conclusion.
To begin, never say, "in conclusion," or "at last," in your speech.
- Review - Memorable statement - Closing Remarks
