Abstract

Public speaking can be defined as the art of speaking effectively in front of a community. However, doing this effectively depends on following some rules and premises. In this case, it is important to carefully monitor certain elements and make adjustments according to their condition. The process starting from the speaker continues until the speech is delivered to the listener, and between the two factors such as the content of the message, its relevance, its impressiveness, and its suitability for the needs of the audience play a role. Public speaking includes a number of important functions. In particular, the effective transmission of ideas to the community and the emergence of opinion changes or increased motivation from them have emerged as an important function. Public speaking can be for the purpose of informing the audience, as well as for the purpose of persuading them. Finally, there are some threats that will prevent effective public speaking. Especially the monotony and the anxious state of the speaker are great threats.
