Eight is great

Fellow speaker,

World Champion speaker Darren LaCroix's speaking coach, David McIlhenny, suggests there are eight natural ways to change up the pacing of the speech (to change up how the speech comes across to the audience, to keep the audience's attention on the speech).  You can change to and from:

• Stories
• Questions
• Slides/graphics/statistics
• Question and Answer
• Narrative
• Activities
• Debrief with audience about experience
• Video

Switch back and forth between these different items about every five minutes to keep the audience engaged and interested in what you are saying.

Changing up,

Tim
