Impromtu speaking

     

  1. Define purpose (inform, persuade, amuse)
    stop, stay cool
    get your goal clearly in focus by defining your viewpoint
    **open strongly**
    remember: if you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there.

  2. choose a specific illustration, experience, or example
    speaking about personal experience will give you confidence
    helps you to be clear and convincing
    **just tell a story** a specific event
    when
    why
    where
    what happened
    who was involved
    how it happened

  3. Conclude
    Summarize by restating
    Your overall purpose
    And/or your main points or beliefs
    **close strongly**

  4. BONUS POINTS
    don’t try to cover too much
    never apologize (when it comes to speech delivery)
