PREPARING YOUR SPEECH
1. Considering Your Audience
The most important aspect of public speaking is the audience. We have to keep in mind that we are speaking to other people, not merely for ourselves. We should consider it during the delivery time and even during the preparation time of the speech (Gareis, 2006). Whether the goal is to entertain, to inform, or to persuade, we should try to reach our listeners and tailor the speech to them. To do this effectively, keep the audience in a dialogue in which the audience members interact mentally with your ideas(Gareis, 2006). For this purpose, you need to choose a topic, examples, and language that appropriate to your listeners
TIPS
Recognizing audiences 1. Provide detail information of your audience including educational background, gender, social environment, and issues related to their life condition. 2. Have a detail evidence of their custom such as language used, social characteristics, and tradition. 3. Provide information of their perspectives and beliefs including politics and social culture. 4. Know their willing why they attend and listen to your speech. 5. Manage between the time of your speech and the condition of the audience 6. Identify the condition between environment and its effect on the audience |
The information can be determined by the occasion or event in which you deliver your speech at. Based on the event or the occasion, you may predict people who probably come. However, if you do not know who will be in your audience, the answers to these questions will have to be educated guesses. If your audience is predetermined, however, you may want to gather information through surveys or other research and tailor your speech to the exact needs and interests of your listeners. Your efforts will be rewarded by the feedback you receive for a speech or presentation that is interesting and sensitive to your audience(Gareis, 2006).
You must always keep your audiences in mind after you know them are. It means that you need to consider well the audiences so that you can keep your line in the right pathway with the audiences. While the audience will not remember what you said by the time of your speech is done, it would be a horrible waste of time and effort if only you yourself attached to your speech(Gareis, 2006).
As a speaker, you must make sure that your speech is interesting, helpful, relevant, and memorable to your audiences. As in the beginning, Wikihow (2006) suggests trying these things to keep connected with your audiences, the suggestions are:
1. Read the newspaper.
It means you must find a way to link what you have to say and what is happening in the news will ease you to highlight the relevance of your speech to your audiences.
2.
Translate the numbers you use in your speech.......................................... (to be continue)
