Outlines aid memory
n a written piece (like this article), headings, bullets, and punctuation provide cues to the reader that help them understand the macro-organization. In a verbal speech, use pauses and transition phrases to achieve this effect so that the audience knows when one point ends, and the next begins.

8. Use Appropriate Transitions
Lead the audience smoothly from one topic to another
Identify which transition phrases/words you are comfortable with and appropriate for the outline
First….second…, Consequently, more importantly,
‘After spending 3 years in….’
‘Now that we have looked at… let’s …’

To inspire :Change audience feelings….leave them on a ‘HIGH’

10. Develop the Opening
Lead the audience into the topic (but don’t give it away)
Make a strong start (Memorize thoroughly)
Type of Opening – depends on your speech purpose!!
To inform : state some startling facts
To humor : get the audience to laugh in the first 30 seconds
To persuade : make the audience aware of the problem
To inspire : introduce a philosophy/beliefs

11. Practice Practice the speech leaving the script for reference
