#93: Revise Your Speech

Posted on 22 September, 2011 by Dan Smith, DTM

How to revise your speech to win!

Finally, you have given your long-awaited speech for a contest, Toastmaster club or for some other event. You think the speech has great potential. Perhaps you are passionate about the topic, but the audience’s reaction was just polite. Now what do you do to revise the speech to become a winner? Many top public speakers go through a process so that the ultimate speech fully carries an authentic message that they can deliver with power and passion because it reflects their personal life experience. Larry Schuster will share the strategies he has used and modified during his two journeys to the national stage for Toastmaster contests in China, strategies that World Champions of Public Speaking found essential to their success.

Summiting Session Speaker: Larry Schuster

In 2010, Larry was division champion of the Humorous Speech Contest and in 2011, he was a finalist in the national competition for the International Speech Contest. He polished his story-telling skills during two decades as a journalist in the United States, and now leads workshops, trainings and coaching sessions on the art of business writing.

Speeches from:
- Minnie Li ACB ALB
- Charles Wang CC
- Alaia Liu CC
- Daniel Lee CC

General Evaluator:
