This document provides guidance for building an effective speech, including sections on introduction, body, conclusion, transitions, evidence, organization, delivery, practice, and Q&A. It recommends using an attention-getter in the introduction, stating the central thesis, and previewing main points. The body should have 3-5 main points with balanced attention. The conclusion is a mirror of the introduction and doesn't introduce new information. Frequent transitions link parts of the speech. Delivery tips include pausing, varying intonation, eye contact, and a relaxed posture. Rehearsal and familiarity with the room are also advised.
