The Eight rules to effective speaking set by David Brooks, a well renowned trainer:
1. The audience is not the enemy.
2. To determine what you want the audience to think, feel or do.
3. To write your speech word for word, so that more topics could be effectively covered in a short speech.
4. To bring life to your words with colourful images and examples.
5. To make a point and tell a story, which can change the way you speak.
6. Happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, disgust and fear are the emotions which will help to connect with the audience.
7. Don't underestimate the power of laughter, as it relaxes the body.
8. Don't tell us, take us.
He also says, "A speech should inform, persuade, inspire and entertain the audience".
I found this article interesting might be, coz I too at time, was a trainer... :)
