More than 2,500 years ago the Greeks plotted a course for clear communications. They argued that people could be persuaded by appealing to reason, emotion and the speaker’s character.
Judging from many of the presentations and speeches I hear and see one might be tempted to think the ancients were outdated. In this 1928 book, classical scholar Rhys Roberts distills Aristotle’s books on Rhetoric into 10 simple tips. Followed, they will improve everyone’s attempts to influence events and thinking.
They are:
1. Be logical.
2. Think clearly.
3. Reason lucidly.
4. Argument is the soul of persuasion.
5. Study human nature.
6. Observe and react to your audience.
7. Delivery is the essence of eloquence.
8. Use language properly.
9. Take time to organize your material.
10. Close crisply.
