In order to create and deliver a great speech, you first need to start by planning how you are going to accomplish this. Planning includes identifying the purpose of your speech, understanding who your audience will be, and deciding what type of speech you are going to give. Once you've got all of this taken care of, you can then identify what the one thing that you want your audience to be able to remember from your speech needs to be.

Contained in this book are the tips and tricks that you are going to need in order to plan a great speech. As you read each chapter, take a moment to think about how you can start to use the information when you are creating your next speech. I think that you are going to be both surprised and pleased with just how much this information is going to help you take your speaking to the next level!

Any book like this one is the result of years of real-world work experience. In my over 25 years of working for 7 different firms, I have met countless fantastic people and I've been mentored by some truly exceptional ones. Although I've probably forgotten some of the people who made me the person that I am today, here is my attempt to finally give them the recognition that they so truly deserve:
Thomas P. Anderson
Art Puett
Bobbi Marshall
Bob Boggs
Dr. Jim Anderson
This book is dedicated to my wife Lori. None of this would have been possible without her love and support.
Thanks for the best 21 years of my life (so far)…!
