    What Is Speech Organization?

    Speech organization refers to the way that a


    person organizes what he or she plans to say in a
    speech. It involves arranging the speech's
    information in a logical way.
    In other words, a speaker organizes a speech
    by making decisions about which main point will
    be discussed first, second, third, and so on.
    Speeches are organized to assist the audience in
    understanding and following the speech's content.
    Importance of Speech Organization

    When planning a speech, it is important to arrange the


    information logically. When a speech's information is
    well-organized, it impacts the way the audience
    understands the speech. Organized speeches are easier
    to understand and remember.
    They are usually more enjoyable, too. An organized
    speech gives credibility to the speaker as well. The
    speaker will appear more professional or competent in
    their role as a speaker.
    How to Organize Your Speech
    Before beginning the process of organizing a speech,
    it is important to distinguish between the speech's
    main idea and main points.
    The main idea of the speech is essentially the
    speech's central purpose. For example, if the central
    purpose of a speech is to persuade the audience that
    trade school is a better choice than college, the main
    idea of the speech might be ''attending a trade
    school is a better choice than attending college.''
    The main points of a speech are smaller pieces of information
    related to the speech's main idea. Using the previous persuasive
    speech example, the main points would be the reasons why trade
    school is a better choice than attending college. A standard speech
    has three main points, although some speech topics may require
    more. At the same time, too many points can confuse or overwhelm
    the audience and cause them to lose their focus on the main idea of
    the speech.

    Many speeches require the use of supporting materials and


    evidence. Supporting materials are books or online sources
    containing evidence (examples, facts, or statistics) that support the
    speech's main points. The speaker must conduct research to find
    supporting materials and obtain the evidence. Returning to the
    example of a persuasive speech about trade schools, the speaker
    would find supporting materials that contain evidence to support
    the main points or reasons why trade school is better than college.
