                   How to Write A Great Speech

I have written countless speeches, congressional testimony and policy papers over the years and taught speech writing as an Adjunct Professor at George Washington University and American University. Over the years, I have honed my craft and have developed a series of key concepts and rules that lead to success.

The three most important concepts are using a keyword or phrase that sums up your entire speech, an intense  focus on brevity and a recognition that one big fact can carry a speech a lot more then 10 little ones.  If you need help with a speech or a report I can help you.
