Selected speech control skills 1 control skills The skills and methods of the speaker to effectively control the speech scene. In the process of formal speech, due to various reasons, the mood, attention, atmosphere and order of the audience often change. The speaker must use this skill to effectively mobilize the audience's emotions, concentrate the audience's attention, control the atmosphere and order on the field, and make it develop in a favorable direction. It includes many skills and methods, such as making a decent appearance, breaking away from the lecture, combining static and dynamic, changing the rhythm, setting suspense, asking questions intentionally, being quiet in chaos and so on.

Point out the theme and purpose of an article or speech. There are various methods. From the position, some points are at the beginning, some points are at the end, and some points are in the key part of the text. From the method point of view, some point to the topic with opinions, some point to the topic indirectly by asking questions, and some use image descriptions or philosophical epigrams to cover up the topic. The key point is to "make the finishing point", which should be just right, accurate and distinctive, and focused. Political speeches or articles often begin with questions.

Momentum is a kind of cadence and priority emotion and charm formed by rhetoric method on the basis of the unity of speech content and speaker's feelings. The flexible use of long and short sentences and the choice of rhetorical methods such as parallelism, duality, repetition, rhetorical questions and thimble can all form the momentum of the article. For example, Wen Yiduo's "The Last Speech" is short and powerful, sometimes reprimanded and sometimes heckled, and uses a variety of rhetorical devices to make the text appear urgent, eye-catching and expressive, which fully shows the author's anger at Kuomintang spies.

Selected speech control skills 2 i. Speech control skills

1. Eye control

Wherever the speaker's eyes go, his influence will follow. No matter how well the speaker speaks, there will inevitably be whispers. If you ignore these people at this time, it may affect the listening effect of others. This requires the speaker to look at them and smile at them. They will soon feel embarrassed and then calm down.

2. Sound control

In order to make a good speech, the speaker should adjust his pronunciation, intonation, speed and rhythm. For example, if the speaker's voice suddenly rises by an octave, it is likely that the absent-minded and dozing people will suddenly wake up and listen carefully; Or suddenly reduce the volume, the scene will gradually quiet down, whispering people will not talk.

3. Action control

Verbally, action control field is mainly reflected in the influence of big movements and body language. Big moves may quickly refocus the audience's attention; Body language can generally be used to remind absent-minded or dozing listeners, such as patting their shoulders, so as not to offend people and to control the scene well.

4. Content control

In a speech, the speaker needs to adjust the content when the audience is impatient. For example, if the theoretical effect is not good, give more examples; If the content is not attractive, change the content or end the speech early.

5. Dialogue control

Dialogue control refers to the dialogue between the speaker and the scene, so that the audience can jointly control the whole scene. For example, a listener's mobile phone suddenly rings, and the speaker can say, "This mobile phone music is in line with my point of view. Let's give it a warm applause! "

Then other listeners' cell phones basically stopped ringing. If the speaker ignores it, other people's mobile phones may ring, which will affect the effect of the speech.

Second, on-site interaction skills

1. Raise your hand to promote participation.

Many people find it difficult to get the audience to raise their hands, because it is generally believed in China that something bad will happen if they raise their hands first, so many people should look around when they raise their hands. There is a trick to make the audience raise their hands, that is, the speaker raises his hand first. At this time, everyone's attention is on the speaker's hand, so he won't look at others, which will easily lead to the cooperation of the audience.

The speaker should raise his hand to promote the participation of the audience, interact with the audience, and let the audience enter the state and enter the course.

2. Asking questions leads to thinking

Asking questions in a speech can not only control the scene, but also form interaction. Asking questions is to throw questions to the audience and make them think. Maybe not everyone answered directly, but most people will think about it seriously. What the audience thought was completely different from what the speaker said directly. The former can leave a deeper impression on the audience.

Turn a period into a question mark

Turning a period into a question mark is also an important way of interaction. The specific method is to add words such as "good", "yes" and "right" at the end of the sentence, so that the audience will have a good interaction when answering.

4. Clever guidance to create interaction

Everyone has a desire to express himself, and the speaker should be good at providing such opportunities to the audience. For example, the speaker said, "Many people are not good, and they are deeply influenced by the traditional culture of China. China's traditional culture educates everyone, saying more (silence) and shooting more (silence). " The speaker doesn't have to say the silent part himself, and the audience will say it directly. This will allow the audience to participate and interact well.

It should be noted that the guide should choose some familiar words, otherwise no one can continue and there is no way to interact.

Repeat and deepen your impression.

In the speech, repeating some content can deepen the impression of the audience and form a good interaction. For example, "read with me" and "review with me".

Third, emergency response.

1. The scene was silent.

Adjust the content

If there is silence at the scene, the speaker should adjust the content as soon as possible and observe the audience's reaction.

interaction

If there is silence at the scene, the speaker can have a small interaction with the audience and let the audience ask some questions to break the silence at the scene. Interaction is always a basic skill in speech.

Tease the audience

If the scene is silent, the speaker can help Doby audience to get out of their serious listlessness. For example, the speaker said, "Everyone looks so serious, as if they didn't come to listen to my speech, but to attend my memorial service." The audience burst into laughter after hearing it, which can make the speech enter a virtuous circle.

2. Forgot the words

Slow down and say it again.

If you forget the words at the scene, the speaker can slow down and say them again, while trying to remember the next content.

Ignore it and go on.

If there is anything forgotten at the scene, the speaker can ignore it and go on, because no one knows what he will say next. For example, we were going to talk about four points, but we forgot the third point. We can talk about the fourth point first, and then come back to the third point, which is completely feasible.

Let the audience answer the questions.

If you forget the words at the scene, the speaker can throw the questions to the audience, which will not only make the audience think about what to say next, but also liberate themselves and give them time to recall what to say next.

Palm pillar method

The so-called palm prop method is to express the main points of the content in just a few lines, write them in your hand, and remind yourself when you forget the words. This method is generally used when the preparation time is really short, and it is not recommended to use it frequently. For example, if you work late the night before and have a meeting the next morning, you will inevitably forget. At this time, you can use the palm prop method.

3. This is wrong

Don't panic, be calm.

If you make a mistake during the speech, the speaker should keep calm, don't panic, and believe that there are always more solutions than problems.

Cover up mistakes, not reinforce them.

If you make a mistake in your speech, the speaker should learn to cover it up instead of emphasizing it.

Less obvious mistake: ignore. Less obvious mistakes, the speaker can be regarded as no mistakes, do not care. Slightly obvious mistake: repetition. Slightly obvious mistakes can only be repeated by the speaker.

Very obvious mistake: repeat and apologize. A very obvious mistake, the speaker needs to describe it again and apologize to the audience.

Unfinished mistakes: Make mistakes if you want to. In fact, the speaker may make mistakes, but before the sentence is finished. For example, the speaker wants to say "the Beijing Olympic Games in 20xx was very successful", but when he says 20xx, he can say "three years have passed since 20xx, and this Olympic Games is very successful"; If it is 20xx, it can be changed to "20xx three years ago, the Olympic Games was very successful".

Clever error correction: rhetorical question. If the speaker is wrong, he can ask questions, such as "Do you think I am right?" A word can solve the problem.

4. Time is up.

Think about the head and the tail. You won't regret it.

Many times, a speech or speech has a time limit, and the speaker can speak as long as he wants. Sometimes, when the leader reminds us that it's over, the audience doesn't want to listen, and it may end early. Therefore, the speaker should think about the beginning and the end before the speech, so as not to end it hastily or even regret it without the end. As long as you think clearly about the beginning and the end, make a little summary at the end and finish the last sentence, you can finish what you started.

Win the support of the audience

Sometimes, although it's time for his speech, he still has some flexible time. At this time, the speaker can gain some time to finish the content by winning the support of the audience.

Selected voice control skills 3 1. Answer the question calmly.

When giving a speech, the audience will often ask sharp questions and want to "take you into the army." What should you do at this time? Learn to calmly answer questions raised by the audience, especially those that seem difficult at first glance. Some people take the method of repression, get angry with criticism and shout "Stop arguing and be quiet", which will only put themselves in a dilemma. Some people don't do this, but take the method of being honest with each other and getting rid of one-liners to turn passivity into initiative.

Second, control emotions and master proper limit.

When you find an emergency, you should be calm, have a good psychological quality, be able to control your emotions and master the sense of proportion. Don't panic on the podium, and don't act impulsively because of impatience. Khrushchev made a noise in a speech at the UN General Assembly on 1959. Khrushchev was so angry that he couldn't help taking off one of his leather shoes and hitting the podium with the heel to stop the noise. But this not only failed to achieve the expected results, but exposed his personality weakness of lack of self-restraint and uncontrollable anger.

Third, cleverly interspersed, active atmosphere

If the venue is dull, you should have the skills of clever insertion and active atmosphere. By using the method of interlude, the speaker can not only make things more vivid and profound, but also enliven the atmosphere and increase the interest of the audience. For example, tell a joke, a story, an anecdote, sing a song and so on. Also pay attention to interlude: interlude must be related to the topic and can play the role of explanation, explanation and supplement; The content interspersed must be moderate, and it should not be abused too much, resulting in distractions and diversion; The connection must be natural and smooth, and it must not make people feel reluctant or rock the boat.

Fourth, make mistakes and be flexible.

It is quite difficult to make mistakes in a speech. If you are wrong, there are two taboos in this situation: one is scratching your head, and the other is being silent for too long. It has been observed that when there is silence for more than 15 seconds during the speech, there will be sporadic laughter under the stage; Silence for more than 30 seconds, there will be laughter from a few listeners; If you are silent for a long time, the audience will generally be impatient.

In the process of speech, if it is a small mistake of missing individual words, as long as it is harmless, it is better not to correct it. After talking for a while, I suddenly forgot what to say in the next paragraph. What should I do? Carnegie introduced several methods that we can learn from:

(1) Change the topic on the spot and type it with the sentence at the end of the last paragraph.

(2) Ask questions to the audience.

(3) If the brain is really blank, make up a relatively complete conclusion temporarily and end it euphemistically.

Fifth, stimulate the emotions of the audience.

In order to make a successful speech, it is undoubtedly a good way to arouse the enthusiasm of the audience by focusing the audience's attention on the speech instead of making it boring. But it is not easy to really arouse the emotions of the audience. Lenin said: "In any war, the question of who wins is ultimately determined by the mood of the people who bleed on the battlefield." To stimulate morale, we must take various measures to stimulate other people's emotions. Psychologists' research shows that emotion, not reason, has the greatest influence on people. Emotion promotes people's behavior, while reason hinders people's action.

The speaker should inspire others' emotions, whether it is posture or language, there must be a passion running through it. Only when the language is full of passion can it arouse the emotions of the audience and produce * * * sounds. There are several common ones. One is to express your feelings directly, that is, to pour out your feelings in an unobstructed view, which is both eloquent and impassioned, firm and powerful.

For example, Demos Tini said in his speech: "Even if all nations agree to endure slavery, at that time, we should fight for freedom." Very firm language is directly used here, expressing strong determination to defend the motherland and freedom, and full of patriotic passion. Another is to pave the way for passion, that is, to render something related to it as much as possible, so that emotions can expand like bullets, and then express their views. This method is like the water of a river, which is blocked first and then opened, so that the emotional water surges down and is unstoppable. In addition, we should pay attention to language rhythm and prosody in language form. The rhythm and rhythm of the sound itself can reflect rich emotions. Therefore, the use of exclamatory tone, address and rhetorical question can also inspire and impress people.

Sixth, ensure the proper appearance.

Speech is the generation of passion, the flow of wisdom, the attack of thought, and it can't be coy at all. The process of speech is a demonstration of the speaker's true spirit, true talent and true pursuit. Any move conceived in advance may become a shackle that binds the success of the speech. However, this does not mean that the speech does not have its own artistic norms, and there is no skill of appearing in the camera.

As soon as the speaker appeared, he appeared. The speaker's body, eyes, movements and expressions send out the initial emotional information, which will significantly affect the audience's impression of you. The appearance of the speaker is to control the initial emotional information, and it is the key moment to condense the speech emotion, attract the audience, establish the exciting point and gain explosive power. There is no doubt that this initial appearance is like the first step in the 100-meter race.

The appearance before the speech is a silent confession and a silent declaration, but it is an exchange of family ties. It plays a great role in creating the atmosphere of the speech, stabilizing the mood of both the speaker and the audience, and enriching the explosive power of the speech. It is the most severe test of the speaker's psychological quality. The first key is to control stage fright. Speech is the transmission of information and must be carried out in a "high and low" situation. As a "power source", once the speaker has stage fright, it undoubtedly means that the power source has been alleviated or blocked, and the result will inevitably be that the transmission channel is blocked and the speech is a complete failure. So the key is to control stage fright before "playing". A perfect appearance gives your speech a good start.

The key to controlling stage fright is to exercise your self-sustaining ability, which is the second key; Scientists' experiments have proved that the strength of self-sustaining power is related to the maturity of people. People's maturity varies greatly. Some people have strong self-sustaining power when they are quite young, and some people lack corresponding self-sustaining power until they are old. Once trapped in a strange environment, they are at a loss, and often lose their original equivalent status between intentional and unintentional.

Seven, grasp the rhythm of the speech

The ancients advocated writing articles "popular as water, written naturally", and so did successful speeches, which could not be directly described, making people like drinking boiled water; You can't do it at once, it makes people breathless. In order to make the speech vivid and touching, the content arrangement should be rich, dense and swaying; There are waves, ups and downs, sometimes relaxed, sometimes serious. In a relaxed language environment, subtly guide and infect the audience.

From many successful speeches, we can see that careful planning, careful arrangement, emphasis on the rhythm and center of the speech, careful selection and organization of materials, and attention to the diversity of languages are the keys to a successful speech.

In the arrangement of speech content, we should consciously focus on the purpose and theme of the speech, and use the method of foreshadowing and echoing in the beginning, transition, expansion and end. For example, in order to attract people's attention, set up suspense appropriately, and consciously ask questions or say some digressions when talking about the key points; In a step-by-step way, gradually guide the audience to emotional climax.

In the rhythm of the speech, we should determine the rhythm frequency according to the psychological characteristics of the audience, and the rhythm should be lively and moderate, so as to be relaxed and ups and downs, and always attract the attention of the audience. In terms of content cohesion, there are many echoes before and after. Because the rhythm of the speech requires the specific content to change in time, it is easy to cause loose structure, and paying attention to the echo before and after can make the content level change more ingenious and natural, so that the speech content can be fully utilized and integrated.

A good speech should pay attention to the combination of eclecticism and diversified sentence patterns, mainly short sentences, long and short sentences, plain spoken language and exquisite and elegant written language, humor and seriousness, brevity and repetition alternately, such as blurting out casually, but full of rhythm and change in neat norms; There are both calm and rigorous discussions and flowing narratives; There are brilliant words from a strategically advantageous position, and there are also broad-minded and approachable people. Only by achieving the perfect unity of "speaking clearly and seeing clearly" and "winding path leading to a secluded place", and letting emotions, love and hate naturally gush from the heart, can the audience sing resonance.
