Your style will be critical in the delivery of the speech One major technique of ceremonial speaking is to create the feeling of closeness, familiarity, universality. By providing your speech with a beginning, a middle part, and an end, you will lay the foundations for a successful speech that fulfills all of your aspirations. The Opening Draft an effective opening that gets your audience’s attention, employing an anecdote, a joke, a quotation, or a thought-provoking question or assertion. You should be able to express your introduction in about thirty seconds or less. The Body Outline a handful of points to cover, just as you would when writing a persuasive or informative essay; after all, again, a speech is a spoken essay. Organize the points so that they support and build on each other, and add or omit points as necessary to support your overall message or theme and to fit into your time limit. Work on your transition from point to point. The Closing Just as you began strongly, be sure to conclude your speech effectively by summarizing your points and finishing up with an additional question or comment for your listeners to take with them. Sample (a welcome speech) I’d like to take a few moments to introduce Jim, our new warehouse manager. He’s new to the company and to the area so I’m sure we’ll all be able to show him a warm welcome. Jim has worked for over 20 years in warehouse management and I know this experience will benefit us all. His knowledge of warehouse systems and his ability to instigate improvements will be essential for us to move forward as a business. So I’d like to finish by saying welcome Jim and we all look forward to working with you. Exercise Read the following Company Introduct
