An organized speech/material
will have 3 essential parts:

grabbing OPENING

• A memorable
CLOSING
START IT RIGHT
A powerful opening is a
VERBAL HANDSHAKE.
To
achieve this, always
remember that
“SPEECHES TELL but
STORIES SELL”
To check if you’ve
covered most
everything in your
talk, you may want to
ask the 6 Journalistic
Questions as it
applies to your topic
purpose or audience.
THE AUDIENCE
CHECKLIST
• How many will you be
talking to?
• Where will they be coming
from?
• How much do they know
about your topic?
• Who is the major decision
maker in the room?
• Who are your major
antagonists / protagonists in
this meeting?
You may use powerful
ANECDOTES or
thought-provoking
QUESTIONS.
INTERJECTIONS
that
show emotion can also
be used to stir the
interest of your audience.
 For speeches that are to be
delivered in a short amount of
time, one may follow the
RULE OF THIRDS in coming
up with the body of speech /
material
Having not more than three points to
discuss in every opportunity is something
that is suggested

Limiting them to three allows you to focus

on the more important points and build on
them in order to get your case across
ALWAYS BITE THE TAIL
The way you start a conversation
should also be the way you end it.
By remembering how you
opened a conversation (the topic
or your introduction) and ending
it in the same manner will allow
for a clear path to take and a
stronger closing.

This will also help you not move

away from what you really
want to talk about.
To end one’s conversation, the
speaker may focus on providing
the LEARNING/MESSAGE that
he/she wishes to impart to the
audience. The speaker may also
wish to include a short summary
reminding the audience of the
important points in the
conversation or speech.
PROPER WORD CHOICE
When writing your speech/material, you
may want to consider the following as
you choose your words:
• The occasion when the speech will be
delivered
• The audience that will be listening to
you speak
• The objectives of the speech and the
entire session
GRAMMAR AND SYNTAX
Correct grammar is
necessary in
delivering a clear
message.
Grammar includes
correct spelling
punctuation and
sentence construction.
VOICE AND TONE
VOICE, TONE AND RHYTHM
A speaker’s confidence,
emotional state and
attitude is often revealed
in his voice. Important
elements include its
LOUDNESS and
SOFTNESS
including PITCH.
VOICE, TONE AND RHYTHM

Another important element is

considering the POWER of the
PAUSE within speeches. This
allows your audience to
properly digest the information
that you are providing them.

heart.

COLLABORATION

PROF. CHARLON T.
AGOS
COLLABORATION
Collaboration is a working
practice whereby
individuals work together
to a
common purpose to
achieve business benefit.
Collaboration enables
individuals to work together
to achieve a defined and
common business purpose.
 PURPOSE OF
COLLABORATIO
• It promotes Self –
NAnalysis
• It results in Problem
Solving
• It makes You Look at the
Bigger Picture
• It Teaches us new lessons
in life
IT PROMOTES SELF ANALYSIS
• Collaboration challenges people to think, articulate and receive
clarity about their competencies. It serves as a mirror that gives
them a glimpse of their strengths and weaknesses. Because two
heads are better than one, teams work better together and plug
each other’s gaps.
IT RESULTS IN
PROBLEM SOLVING
When a variety of knowledge
and skills are pooled, it creates a
talent pool that is vast and more
competent, able and
experienced. Virtual
collaboration minimizes or even
eliminates the need for finances
and infrastructure.
 IT MAKES YOU LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE
No two people are the same, and when you have several people from
different backgrounds working for you, you will need to know how to
leverage those differences and identify how they can complement each
other. You also need to understand that even if the project does not
shape up the way you wanted it to in the end, the partnership could
still achieve a great deal.
IT TEACHES US NEW LESSONS IN LIFE
When your teams are collaborating, they are essentially
learning new things from each other. Your organization
becomes a body which encourages a culture of continuous
learning, and supports that learning through opportunities
for growth and development, as well as through safety nets
for failures. Whenever team members collaborate, they
enhance their capacity to go and grow beyond their
comfort zones and take your business to new heights.
Define your purpose
in life….

Loving what you do

is different from
doing what you
loved….
