If you want to get people's attention and/or probably make some of them mad, you should do a speech on the "wedge" issues (as Lou Dobbs calls them) between Republicans and Democrats, environmental issues, lowering the drinking age, abortion, foreign policy, drugs legal/illegal. Another thing is to find an issue that is at least semi-interesting within your local/state community, like something in the news perhaps, or an on going problem, or why to outlaw something, or make something into a law.

What's interesting to you may not be interesting to someone else.  So who is the speech going to be given to??  Think about the group you will be speaking to, then try to figure out what would be interesting to THEM (take into consideration things like their aprox. age group, their jobs, probably hobbies, etc.).  Good luck!

I'm teaching a class like this right now and I get sick of listening to political speeches, I'd like to see you argue that chocolate chip cookies are better than oatmeal rasin.  I heard a pretty good speech last year about why Seinfeld is the best sitcom ever - that was pretty interesting.  Have fun with it though, you don't have to pick something super heavy to persuade people of it, you just have to be professional.

Aaaa ... ok. Now I see the fine print. I was going to suggest you tweak your quote to something like, "to be a great speaker, you really need ideas." Maybe you can rework it in a clever way to include both ideas.

There are many questions for you to answer before I can answer yours, such as:\n\nWhat is the speech for? Who is the audience? How long should it be?\n\nThat being said, pick something that is meaningful to you. You shouldn't be too casual, but let some of yourself shine through, your achievements as well as your struggles. Honesty, sincerity and humor really make for a good speech.

It sounds like you already have written the speech.\n\nTo simplify the process, you need an introduction, a body and a conclusion. \n\nIntro: you introduce what you want to say. In your case, even greetings and why all are present. \n\nIn the body: tell them what you want them to do or know. Do you want them to get to know each other. Build relationships, enjoy the evening, have fun, etc. \n\nThen conclusion: re-phrase the body into an action statement. Have a great time.\n\nNo need for overt jokes. Covert jokes however can work. If your company is known for being strict on policy and procedure, create a factious policy and assign a number and include it in the speech. He could say something like, " in your hand book on page 33 (if yours is only 32 pages) it says specifically, all employees are expected to have fun at such gatherings or what ever.

Use an old paper that you got an A on and turn it into a speech.  I did this often in my speech class... I'd take an essay I had to write for english (with a good grade) and make a speech out of it.  Chose something you feel passionate about (this is important - because if you get lost during the speech, you can say anything that comes to mind)... write up an intro, three points, and a conclusion.  Simple.
