Developing a sure-fire speech topic
Page 34 of the January-February issue of Speaker magazine (from the National Speakers Association) has an excellent two-page article by Jeff Davidson on how to Develop a Sure-Fire Topic. He suggests exploring by:
1. Talking to your local librarian
2. Tapping the industry influentials
3. Reading trend-identifying publications
3. Conversing with meeting planners
4. Expanding on the subtopics within your existing topics
5. Rereading your interviews
5. Filling a void
Jeff also discusses checking a topic to see if it really fits you.
