		<description>Join in discussion when the opportunity arises
Only use gestures when necessary
Have speech prepared prior to speaking unless it is an impromptu
Hold all question and comments until the end of a persons speech or when asked to do otherwise
You should always be dressed for the party

Feel comfortable when giving a speech
Express points in detail with examples when possible
Examine the audience before inputting jokes, comments etc.
Talk clearly and know pronunciations of tricky words prior to giving the speech
Stay on the subject of speech(don&#039;t ramble for space fillers)</description>
