Employee engagement and success
Preparing a strong outline is one of the keys for a successful presentation. Outlines should include several major elements:
Introduction, body, and conclusion
A thesis statement
The main points you will use to support your thesis statement
The way you will organize your ideas throughout the speech
The transitions you will use to move from one idea to another throughout the presentation
A strong conclusion
Any references that will be used in the presentation.
Additionally, by helping you to have the content organized for your speech, the outline will allow you to focus more time on delivering the presentation.
Your project assignment for the first unit of the course is to develop an outline for your informative speech. The outline is due in unit 1 and the speech is due in unit 4. Your speech is required to be between 4–7 minutes in length, contain at least one visual element/aid and include at least two credible resources.
