The goal of any speech that we give is for us to find a way to connect with our audience. 

If we can do this, then we’ll be able to clearly  communicate our message to them. An interesting question for you is if  you were in your audience listening to yourself speak, would you rather  hear two people having a conversation or hear a summary of what they  said? I think that most of us would agree that hearing the conversation  would be more interesting. 

What that means for our speeches is that if  we can find a way to work conversations into them, then we’ll have a  better chance of connecting with our audience.
