                             that can help the speaker to reach a majority of people in a diverse audience
                             are as follows:
                                   Use  a  variety  of  types  of
                                     supporting  materials.  Use  a
                                     balance   of   both    logical
                                     support    (statistics,   facts,
                                     specific   examples)      and
                                     emotional  support  (stories
                                     and illustrations).
                                   Remember  the  power  of
                                     stories.  People  from  most

                                   Add visual support. Show the

                                     audience  an  outline  of  our
                                     key  ideas  using  a  Power

                        2)   Psychological audience analysis
                                                           The psychological audience analysis studies the
                                                    audience  attitudes  towards  a  topic,  purpose,  and
                                                    speaker  while  probing  the  underlying  beliefs  and
                                                    values that might affect these attitudes. Understanding
                                                    the audience’s attitudes, believes, and values will help
                                                    the  speaker  to  select  the  topic,  to  determine  the

                             Considering  the  speaking  situation  is  also
                        important since it may affect the audiences’ response
                        to the speaker. Situational audience analysis includes
                        an  examination  of  the  time  and  place  of  our  speech,
                        the size of our audience, and the speaking occasion.
