Overview: The words of great speeches endure not only because of the strength and relevancy of their prose, but because of the charisma and thoughtfulness of their presenters. Because most people are better readers than listeners, it's best to not only speak slowly and clearly, but to avoid any jargon or slang that might confuse the listener. To ensure that your speech is easy to comprehend, practice it at least once before a person who represents your target audience. It's easier to make changes to a speech ahead of time than to back pedal during a presentation when you see listeners squirming in their seats or rolling their eyes in frustration.
