Monroe originated the "Monroe's Motivated Sequence" which forms the conceptual core of so many successful persuasive and actuative speeches. Monroe also introduced a "three-step process" to teaching speech. Topics covered in the book include: public speaking skills; the basic elements of speechmaking; listening; speaker-audience interaction; planning and preparing speeches; choosing speech subjects and purposes; analyzing the audience and occasion; using motivational appeals in speech preparation; finding and using supporting materials; adapting the speech structure to audiences; beginning and ending the speech; outlining the speech; using visuals; developing speeches to persuade, inform and entertain. This book includes several sample speeches for study and analysis as well as recommended supplementary reading.
