3.) What are the techniques in public speaking?

The Informative Technique

- This type of public speaking focuses on explaining a concept or idea to the
audience.
- Informative speakers tend to focus on specific subject matter, such as people,
events, places, stories and so on.
- Examples could include a college professor holding a lecture on a particular
subject, or a company’s senior executive giving a presentation on last year’s
sales.
The Persuasive Technique
- the act of convincing members of your audience to do something, based on
them agreeing with your viewpoint
- In this technique, the spectrum of persuasion is broad: You can get your
audience members to agree to buy a product, take on a new lifestyle, or even
conform to a particular political opinion.
- Lawyers, politicians, and salespeople all use this technique to their benefit, and if
you want to persuade your audience to do something, then you should too.

The Demonstrative Technique

- this one’s a little debatable because it focuses more on the actions omitted
during a speech or presentation rather than the words being spoken
- the speaker performs actions, and clearly explains those actions in the process

The Ceremonial Technique

- ceremonial speeches are all about giving speeches during special occasions
(such as weddings, birthdays, graduations, and so on)
- the goal of ceremonial speaking is to trigger an emotional response from an
audience. It’s all about fostering an emotional connection with the people who
are taking the time to listen to you
