What role does SCORRE play in the context of an entire speech?
Focus – it is the Heart of the speech

3. Putting it All Together
Why can’t I give both an enabling and obligatory speech?
Speeches must have a single objective
When doing an enabling speech, it is appropriate to use an opening that helps persuade people to want to know the how of the speech.
When doing a obligatory speech, it is appropriate to use the closing to present an opportunity for action or response.

4. Putting it All Together
Opening
The opening is a fuse designed to ignite your audience. It is the only chance you’ll have to make your audience want to hear what you have to say. If the fuse is wet, you’ll fizzle.
Purpose of the opening:
Establish contact
Stir interest in the subject
Show a basis for giving the talk
Develop rapport
Make your audience want to listen
Prepare the audience

Opening
Two basic parts to an opening:
Introduction – Grab ‘em
Transition – Move ‘em
Qualities of a good opening:
Brief, clear, appropriate, purposeful, and audience-centered
Characteristics of a poor opening:
Full of flattery, apology-ridden, predictable, and complex

6. Putting it All Together
Closing
Purpose of the closing:
Restate the objective and remind the audience of the logic that led to it.
Provide an opportunity for response or application.
Qualities of a good closing:
Brief, clear, unifying, well prepared, appropriate, and practical
