Organization And Public Speaking

Full and complete organization is one of the keys to success in public speaking. The good news is that organizational skills can be learned if they aren't inherent.

Step #1: When you are doing the research required for a speech that you have to give, take notes -- take lots and lots of notes, and be certain that you write down your source and the author's name. If you must make a quote, then it needs to be an accurate quote, and credit needs to be given. If you quote a source without giving credit, that is called plagiarism.

Step #2: Organize your thoughts concerning the speech that you will make. Personally I like to use an outline, but that is just a personal preference. Organize your thoughts about the points that you want to make in any manner that makes sense to you.

Step #3: Write the middle part of your speech, first using the outline or whatever system you used in step #2 to list the points that you want to make. Assume that you have already started the speech, and this is the part where you are imparting the information that you want to impart to your audience. Be sure that the points are made in a logical and progressive order so that you have no need to backtrack or use phrases like, "but before you do that, you need to…"

Step #4: Write your opening. Now that you know exactly what you are going to say, you will have a much better idea of how to open your speech and prepare your audience for what you are about to say.

Step #5: Write your closing. You know how you are going to introduce the material that you will discuss. You know how and in what order you will introduce the material so writing a short summary should be the proverbial "piece of cake."
