Training in public speaking is not a matter of imitation...

...it is not a matter of conformity to standards...

...it is not a matter of becoming a highly perfected-machine...

11/17/2014

REFLECT THAT YOUR AUDIENCE

WILL NOT HURT YOU

Man, what you

need

is not sympathy,

but a PUSH!

11/17/2014

THE SIN OF MONOTONY

Same volume and

pitch of tone

Same speed and

same emphasis

11/17/2014

Every change in the thought demands a

change in the voice-pitch.

A GREAT CONTRAST

ALWAYS ROUSES

ATTENTION.

A parrot is equally eloquent.

11/17/2014

PAUSE AND POWER

...pause has a distinctive value...expressed in silence...

Pause in public speech is not mere silence --- it is

silence made designedly eloquent.

...pause either BEFORE or AFTER, an important word or

phrase.

...pause creates effective suspense...

11/17/2014

CONCENTRATION IN DELIVERY

Speak! Do not anticipate!

11/17/2014

FEELING AND ENTHUSIASM

Man is a feeling animal, hence, the public speaker’s

ability to arouse men to action depends almost wholly

on his ability to touch emotions.

THE VOICE

“Sound is a series of waves and

if you make a prison of your

mouth, holding the jaws and lips

rigidly, it will be very difficult for

the throat to squeeze through,

and even when it does escape, it

will lack force and carrying

power.”

FACIAL EXPRESSIONS

An individual’s emotional state can be transmitted via their facial expression.

Facial expression can be used to regulate interaction, e.g., synchronization of conversation.

11/17/2014

EYE CONTACT

Looking can be used to initiate and regulate interpersonal interactions and can be used to assess the reactions of others during oral presentations and conversations.

Long stares = signal of hostility or aggression

the eyes say it all...

11/17/2014

Can be used to replace words.

Emphasizes an element of verbal message.

Regulates or signals the beginning or end of an interaction.

11/17/2014

An individual’s posture can reveal how they feel and their attitude towards others involved in the interaction.

Posture tends to vary as a function of how formal an interpersonal situation is with more relaxed postures indicating less formal situations.

11/17/2014

Nonverbal vocal cues

such as the pitch, tone,

speed of speech can also

reveal information about

emotional states and can be

used to regulate interactions.

For example, people

experiencing anxiety tend to

speak very quickly and in a

high pitch.
