Recommendation

Good public speaking takes practice and skill, but how do you go from being a good speaker to a great one? In this succinct and practical article, marketing experts Kenny Nguyen, Gus Murillo, Robert Killeen and Luke Jones of Big Fish Presentations discuss why using three basic rhetorical devices in public speaking – “ethos, pathos and logos” – can help you influence the perspective of any audience you might encounter. getAbstract recommends the authors’ advice and tactics to everyone looking to improve their public speaking and presentation skills.

Take-Aways

  • A persuasive public speech involves more than just delivering a message. It aims to evoke a specific response in an audience so you can influence their perspective on a given topic.
  • To persuade people, you must understand to whom you are speaking. Get to know their background, what they want from the speaker, what medium would appeal the most to them, and what information or approach they might find objectionable.
  • Establishing your “ethos,” or credibility, as a speaker is vital if you are to convince your listeners of your expertise. To establish proper ethos, make sure you master your subject matter, understand your audience, and back your claims or ideas with “credible sources.”
