Developing a planning strategy for your persuasive speech

Develop a planning strategy for your persuasive speech based on the following five criteria for an effective speech:

1. need for credibility
2. need for intellectual stimulation
3. need for creativity
4. need for relevance

Use these criteria to answer the following questions about your own speech:

• How would you demonstrate that you are a credible speaker on this subject?
• How would you keep the audience thinking and learning about your topic?
• How would you make the speech creative?
• How would you demonstrate that this topic is relevant to the audience’s needs and interests?

Be specific in your answers. For instance, don’t just say you are a credible speaker because you have done a lot of research. You need to give us what sources you are using and how you have determined they are credible. For creativity, don’t just say you will use a PowerPoint. You need to tell us what will be on each slide.
