The Nature of Entertainment
and
Understanding Entertaining Speeches
The Nature of EntertainmentOften speaking is not traditional informative or persuasive speeches; instead we are asked to entertain. Knowing how to deliver speeches in a variety of different contexts is the nature of entertaining speaking.
Understanding Entertaining Speeches
Entertaining SpeechA speech designed to captivate an audience’s attention and regale or amuse them while delivering a message.Entertaining speeches should communicate a clear message, but the manner of speaking used in an entertaining speech is typically different than a traditional informative or persuasive speech.
Two Basic Occasions for Entertaining SpeechesEntertaining speeches are often delivered on special occasions (e.g., a toast at a wedding, an acceptance speech at an awards banquet), which is why they are sometimes referred to as special-occasion speeches.Entertaining speeches are often delivered on more mundane occasions, where their purpose is primarily to amuse audience members or arouse them emotionally in some way.When we use the word “entertain,” we are not just referring to humor but also to drama.
Four Ingredients to Entertaining Speeches
Be PreparedThe biggest mistake you can make when standing to deliver an entertaining speech is to underprepare or simply not prepare at all.By writing down some simple notes, you’ll be less likely to deliver a bad speech.
Be Adaptive to the OccasionNot all content is appropriate for all occasions.Remember that being a competent speaker is about being both personally effective and socially appropriate.Different occasions will call for different levels of social appropriateness.One of the biggest mistakes entertaining speakers can make is to deliver one generic speech to different groups without adapting the speech to the specific occasion.When we tailor speeches for special occasions, people are more likely to remember those speeches than if we give a generic speech.
Be Adaptive to your AudienceWe cannot stress the importance of audience adaptation.Different audiences will respond differently to speech material, so the more you know about your audience the more likely you’ll succeed in your speech.
Be Mindful of the TimeDifferent entertaining speech situations have their own conventions and rules with regard to time.Acceptance speeches and toasts, for example, should be relatively short (typically under five minutes).A speech of introduction should be extremely brief—just long enough to tell the audience what they need to know about the person being introduced in a style that prepares them to appreciate that person’s remarks.Commencement speeches and speeches to commemorate events can run ten to twenty minutes in length.
Be Mindful of the Time cont.Audiences on different occasions will expect speeches of various lengths.Although it’s true that graduation commencement speakers genera.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
3. Standardize Corporate Lingo
How you communicate matters. Replace words
such as "employee " with "team member;" go
through the process of reviewing all corporate
lingo and standardize terms that foster a
collaborative environment. Be sensitive to
cultural differences and stay away from slang
not easily understood.... "for f**k's sake is an
exceptional to rule.
5. MEETING
AGENDAS
Send a meeting agenda 24
hours in advance so those who
need time to process
information before speaking in
meetings are prepared to do so.
6. CATERING MEALS
Be mindful of dietary restrictions
when catering food for corporate
events: think kosher, vegan,
gluten free and be particularly
mindful of cross-contamination.
7. Be mindful of timezones and
international holidays when
planning conference calls and all
hands meetings.
Never ever have a meeting with
colleagues across the pond in a
conference room without
windows; natural sunlight is a
big deal for those accimlating to
current timezone
8. All Hands Meeting Speakers
Get outside your industry when bringing
speakers in and really think about who,
what, why and how will this speaker briing
your goals to life. One of the most
influential speakers I ever watched was
Captain Michael Abrashoff, author of "It's
Your Ship". He offered an usual twist on
change management; ,reinforced that
good ideas can come from anywhere. He
single handedly changed my perception of
the military and how many lessons we can
learn in corporate from our veterans when
it comes to embracing change.
9. Expand your Global Footprint
Expand your organization's
global footprint with corporate
colored sneakers to get your
team mates moving! I am a
running shoe junkie and can
never have enough sneakers!
