Course Overview

Many public servants are asked to prepare speeches or speech notes for a senior officer or a minister. They rarely have any training in how to do this effectively. Participants in this course are given a step-by-step guide for writing a speech for work. They are shown how to systematically work through a range of strategies to generate interesting ideas. They are also given a variety of speech structures to build their speech around.

Learning Outcomes

  • avoid the traps for inexperienced speech writers
  • understand the way the speaker and the occasion interact
  • write a strong opening and closing
  • structure a speech to suit the purpose
  • make the speech interesting
  • write a speech the speaker will feel comfortable giving.
