1. The document discusses the process of writing a speech, which involves determining the audience, choosing a topic, and selecting an organizational pattern. 2. There are five common organizational patterns for structuring a speech: logical/topical, chronological, spatial, causal/cause-and-effect, and problem-solution. 3. The organizational pattern chosen depends on the type of information being presented in the speech and how it relates logically or sequentially.

3. The SpeechWriting Process
Just like events planning, or any other activities,
writing an effective speech follows certain steps
or processes. The process for writing is not
chronological or linear; rather, it is recursive. That
means you have the opportunity to repeat a
writing procedure indefinitely or produce multiple
drafts first before you can settle on the right one.
Figure 1 shows the schematic diagram.

8. Some people may find giving a presentation to a group of people
nerve-wracking, while others enjoy the opportunity to
communicate their messages toothers. For both professional and
novice public speakers, however, there are five organizational
patterns that can be used when developing a speech or
presentation you'll deliver to a group of people, to give the speech
structure and flow.

9. LOGICAL ORTOPICAL PATTERN
If you are giving a speech or presentation that contains
several ideas that are interrelated in such a way that one
flows naturally to the next, the logical pattern of
organization can be used. As the name implies, you'll be
organizing the information in a logical manner according
to topic. This organizational pattern can also be used in a
speech that discusses several sub-topics under the
banner of a primary topic – just attack them all in a
logical sequence.

10. Chronological orTime-Sequence Pattern
•When information in a speech follows a chronological
sequence, then the information should likewise be
organized chronologically. For example, a speech on
the development of a new technology should begin
with its origin, then continue along the same timeline
as events occurred. This organizational pattern is
typically used in any speech addressing a subject from
an historical perspective.

11. Spatial or Geographical Pattern
If you wish to evoke an image of something that
has various parts, and those parts are
distinguished by geography, then organize your
speech using a spatial pattern. Spatial patterns
are suited for speeches about a country or city, or
even a building or organization, provided that the
organization occupies a specific age or graphical
location, such as a hospital or university.

12. Causal or Cause-and-Effect Pattern
Another way of organizing a speech on a particular topic
is to look at the subject in terms of cause and effect. For
example, a speech about providing foreign aid to victims
of a natural disaster in another country would discuss the
disaster itself (the cause) and the impact the disaster had
on the nation's people (the effect).
In this example, a further effect would be found in
discussing the details of how foreign aid can help the
victims.
