Speechwriting

A tip for speechwriting.

Avoid writing in paragraphs!

They're a pig to edit and even tougher to internalise as a flow.

I suggest one sentence (or phrase) per line.

Preferably double or 1.5 spaced.

Easier to edit.

Easier to internalise.

You'll be prompted to write in shorter sentences too.

May look like poetry as a result.

But that's a good sign.

One of the best investments in personal development I had at BP was to engage Simon Bucknall as a personal public speaking coach. He was phenomonal and key to my moving from being a very nervous public speaker to a strong and confident one.
