SPEECH DELIVERY
“I see something in
you, but I don’t know
what is.”
•According to Stephen Lucas
(2011), author of Art of Public
Speaking, a good delivery means
that you are capable and able to
present your message in clear,
coherent, and interesting way.
•Good delivery…conveys the speaker’s
ideas clearly, interestingly, and
without distracting the audience. Most
audiences prefer delivery that
combines certain degree of formality
with the best attributes of good
conversation—directness,
spontaneity, animation, vocal, facial
expressiveness, and lively sense of
communication (p.244).
•Public speaking is not simply
reading a speech or talking about
your topic. It requires
connections with your audience
and presenting yourself formally
to public.
