Ending: Top Ten Epilogue YT icon

"People will tell you what to do. If it fits do it. If it doesn't, don't."

  

Although offered as my top ten issues for becoming a better speaker, this list is incomplete. There's more, but those items are personal, not secrets to be withheld, but ideas uniquely formed through sixty years of speaking.

  

Encouragement: Examine the list. Score yourself on a scale of 0 to 10, where zero means a void of commitment and 10 is perfection. Work on what you need to improve most, next most, third most.

  

#0: Speaker's Premise

#1: Motivation

#2: Commitment

#3: SME (Subject Matter Expertise)

#4: Right Audience

#5: Audience Focused

#6: A Perfect Program

#7: Encourage Insight

#8: Development Process

#9: The Modes of Speaking

#10: Continuous Improvement.

  

That's all for this section. Go forth and speak thy best!
