Capturing your audiences at once - Deepstash

Capturing your audiences at once

  • Begin on common ground that everyone can agree on to start positively  
  • Don't frame your opening in a way that causes people to say "no” immediately
  • Avoid saying you will "prove" something, as that can arouse opposition 
  • Raise a question for the audience to consider rather than stating your position
  • Use facts and examples strategically, as in Mark Antony's speech, without directly arguing. 
  • Allow the audience to form their own conclusions based on the information presented
