- Abstract
The article discusses corporate training in effective speaking. Richard M. Harris Associates offers courses in speech development and effective speech giving. Dr. Richard M. Harris, president of Harris Associates, makes an example of former U.S. President Bill Clinton's debate with former U.S. Presidents George Bush and Ross Perot in 1992. Suggestions for effective speaking are offered which include the use of "you" and "we" in order to include the audience, the use of pauses and hand gestures to add personality to a speech, and the careful and concise use of visuals.
