Purpose:
Speeches are widely used at social, political and corporate
events. Executives, politicians and other organizational
leaders find speeches to be an integral aspect of their
life. Speeches are an effective method of demonstrating
leadership, influencing others and motivating a team.
Method:
In writing speeches, the rules of written English should
be modified to facilitate spoken English. The theme and
content should be composed to reflect the occasion, audience,
purpose, time and style of the person delivering the speech.
When writing a speech, short and focused sentences should
be used and the number of ideas minimized or aligned to
ensure effectiveness of delivery and audience appeal.
