Good Speech is a Means to an End and Not an End in Itself!
Public speaking requires more of the speaker than getting through the time allocated. We need to consider what our preferred outcome or objective is. We have 15 seconds to make an impression and so the first considerations are around how you look. Your confidence, enthusiasm and professionalism. This will be demonstrated by:
eye contact
facial expressions
base position
arm movements
gestures
appropriate movements
Then the audience will consider how you sound. Are you credible, enthusiastic, professional? Included in this are:
pace and rate of speech
pitch
inflection
volume
articulation
effective pausing
You will need to consider your goals throughout which will lead to your structure.
