The next component in this series of public speaking training on preparation is to:

Decide on Delivery Style

The purpose for speaking and the nature of the audience will help determine the type of delivery. Your delivery style will probably be a mixture of styles but with one style dominant depending on the audience and purpose of your speech. The 5 possible styles are:

Humor and narrative - For providing entertainment

Informative - To help the audience understand something, can be an explanation or descriptive

Persuasive - For the audience to form an opinion, change their mind or strengthen a belief

Motivation - To inspire the audience to take action

There will be more public speaking training on preparation will follow in the next few days.
