  10. You might think of it this way: As a Special Occasion speaker, you are creating community. Lect 13W

  11. So remember: Whether you are aiming to entertain or to inspire, you should have a Central Idea-- one that expresses the values you want to remind your audience about. You should leave your audience thinking! Lect 13W
