3. WHEN :
It is yet another important question referring to
time. “When” should clarify and stress the time line
for audience to take an action. e.g. If you appeal audi-
ence to join the course or a scheme in such a way that
they will turn up in huge numbers to enroll themselves
immediately.
4. WHERE :
Where should provide the place of problem and
the location of solution. “Where” works as adverbial
of place. This should lead your audience to find out a
place of relief and problematic area to avoid in future.
5. WHY:
It is said that every human action is motivated to
gain either monetary returns or honor.
It explains why the audience should listen to you and
take action suggested by you. Your presentation has a
certain motif. It deals with the motivating factors in
prompting your audience to act. “Why” answers criti-
cal enquiry related to the topic.
6. HOW:
Last but not the least is “How” which deals with
the process. The theoretical discussion is completed
through above questions. Now step by step directions
are prescribed under this section. If “What” is the soul
then “How” is the body of your presentation.
In nutshell, to become a successful, professional
and reliable speaker in all walks of life, present your-
self neatly. It is essential for you to incorporate these
questions and address the concerns of the audience in
your presentation.
