1. How to write a great persuasive speech!

2. You have 30 seconds to get your audience’s attention
38% of your impact = voice
55% of you impact = body language
Only 7% of the impact of your speech comes from your words

4. First, we start with the head...
The hair represents the INTRODUCTION to the speech. We start casually, perhaps with an introduction to the topic.
The hair represents the WOW! statement that grabs the audience’s attention...obviously!

5. Introduction continued...
The mustache represents the personal connection...what experience have YOU had with the topic; or why do you feel strongly about your topic?
Finally, the neck symbolizes your thesis: “why am I speaking?” It connects the introduction to the rest of the speech, and it’s VERY important (much like a neck)

6. Next, the BODY of your speech!
This is the “muscle” of your speech. Here, you present 3 arguments to support your thesis.

7. The body continued...
Argument 1 Argument 2 Argument 3 Not only do the arguments add muscle, but they also add necessary support, much like Nacho Libre’s spandex.

8. Next, to keep your audience’s attention, tell a story related to your topic. This adds “pizzazz” (like these knee pads and cape)

9. To end the body, offer three actions
One small
One medium
One large

10. And the feet...
They symbolize the conclusion, or end, of the speech. They provide the necessary balance to hold up the argument.

11. To begin your conclusion...
Start by restating your thesis
Then make another WOW! statement – leave your audience with a lasting impression/thought that will stay in their heads long after the speech

12. To summarise
Introduction Casual WOW! Personal Thesis

13. Body Argument 1 Argument 2 Argument 3 Story Three Actions

14. Conclusion Wrap it up – restate your thesis WOW!
