SPEECH OF INTRODUCTION OUTLINE SAMPLE

Specific Purpose:             This is what your main points must support or prove.  Tell me in one sentence what the purpose of your speech is–for example

I will introduce Jack [interviewee’s name will be Jack for this example] to my audience.

Central Idea:                      Summarize your speech/outline in one sentence.  Should clearly sum up all of your main points.  A declarative sentence.  For example:

Jack has overcome many difficulties in his pursuit of a degree in Education, yet still has

time to enjoy life.

INTRODUCTION

I.     (Attention Getter)  This could be a story or anything you know will GRAB your audience's attention.

“Albert Einstein once said that in the middle of difficulties lie opportunities.  We all experience difficulties in our lives, however, what makes some of us different from others is how we deal with the difficulties.  The person I will introduce to you today sees difficulties as opportunities.”

II.    (Reveal Topic) Reveal your topic to your audience–just your topic–not a preview.

“Today I have the opportunity to introduce you to Jack Hart, our new classmate.”

III.   (Credibility Statement)  Answer the question "Why should we listen to YOU?"  Give some type of factual information or some reference that will show that you know what you are talking about.  This could be the fact that you had an extensive in-class interview with your interviewee.  Perhaps you did additional research, or you telephoned your interviewee.

“I interviewed Jack in class, and spoke with him on the phone.  Before the interview I didn’t Know Jack—now I do.”

IV.  (Preview)  Briefly reveal your topic and state what your main points will be.

For example:

“Today, I will tell you about Jack’s

A.                  Main point 1 goes here “background”

B.                  Main point 2 goes here “education”

C.                  Main point 3 goes here “and his hobbies”

(TRANSITION:  Transitions are used to go smoothly from one part/point of the speech to another. Include in all of your connectives the exact wording you will use in your speech.  “Let us start with Jack’s background.”)

BODY

Your first main point goes here-it MUST be one complete sentence.

For example:

“Jack has overcome many difficulties in his life.”

“When Jack was nine years old he lost his father to cancer.”

“Jack quickly became the ‘Man’ of the house.”

“Having two younger brothers to care for gave Jack a great deal of responsibility at an early age.”

“Every chance he could he helped his Mother around the house.”

TRANSITION: A transition is used to go smoothly from the 1st Main Point to the 2nd Main Point.

(Include the exact wording of your transition)

For example: “Now you know a little bit about Jack’s background let me tell you about his educational.”

Your second MAIN POINT goes here.  Follow the same format that you used for the first main point.

“Jack has some specific educational goals.”

TRANSITION: A transition is used to go smoothly from the 2nd Main Point to the 3rd Main Point.

(Include the exact wording of your transition)

Your third MAIN POINT goes here. (The total number of main points is optional, however, three main points seems to be the number easiest to manage as a speaker, and the easiest to remember for your audience.)

“Jack enjoys life every chance he gets.”

TRANSITION: A Transition is used to transition smoothly from the body of your speech into the conclusion. (Include in your transitional statement your exact wording)

“We can see that Jack enjoys life – let us review what makes Jack who he is today.”

CONCLUSION

I.     (Summary Statement)  Summarize your main points.  Be specific and concise.  Give an example from each main point.

“Jack has overcome many losses and difficulties in his life.  He has helped raise his two younger brothers.  While helping raise his siblings he decided that he would like to pursue a career as a Teacher.  Jack is not all work and no play—Jack enjoys surfing and he loves working with children.  Jack has combined his two passions by teaching surfing to children in the Maui Youth Program.”

II.    (Memorable Closing Statement)  Leave your audience with something to think about.  A memorable close that refers back to the attention getter creates psychological unity for your audience.

“At one time or another you may have thought to yourself that You Don’t Know Jack, however, now you do.  Jack has found nothing but opportunities in the difficulties he has faced – I encourage you to take the opportunity to get to know Jack—it won’t be difficult.   Let’s welcome him to our class.”

A SPEECH ON INTRODUCTION

A  speech of introduction is intended to highlight the accomplishments, credentials, activities, and characteristics of an individual. There are several conventions to be observed when conducting an effective speech of introduction:

1. Make the audience want to hear about the character.

You might relate an anecdote or (short) story, arouse curiosity, etc.

Make an effort to get the audience to like/respect the person—use information that the audience would find interesting, significant, or appealing.

1. Cover the aspects of the speakers background that the audience would find pertinent: education, special honors, work, etc. (This information can be gained by interviewing the speaker or getting an information sheet from them).

2. Just for this occasion, relate the speaker to yourself and the impact of the character in your personal life

3. Some humor is okay, if it is in keeping with the occasion and tasteful.

4. Be brief—(Your speech should be 3 mins max).
