Устное выступление, речь, доклад, даже телефонный звонок - это важнейшее средство, от использования которого нередко зависит имидж фирмы, отношение партнеров, потребителей, судьба закона, внимание к отрасли, предприятию, товару, наконец, самому оратору. И в мировой практике бизнеса эти средства широко используются.
Выступления, обращения могут использоваться не только за пределам" фирмы, но и внутри ее, ведь единственный способ настраивать людей энергичную деятельность, это общение с ними. Несмотря на кажущуюся простоту, устное выступление как средство налаживания связей с общественностью, партнерами, клиентами, потребителям является весьма сложной задачей и требует необходимых знаний, умения навыков.

Selecting Speakers
It is imperative to select speakers who can convey ideas and information effectively. In some cases the chief executive officer is the only possibility. If reporters demand a statement from the president, their request must be granted, but if circumstances permit, it may he better to choose someone else.
J.L. Kraft was the founder of Kraft Cheese Co. He was a very able man but had a voice like a rock crusher. He was a very poor speaker. Both he and his people knew this, so Kraft made very few public speeches. This is not to say that speakers should he selected for their dulcet voices or attractive faces, but the possible public reaction to any speaker should be considered.
Another factor in choosing a speaker is expertise. The speaker will be expected to have considerable knowledge of the subject to be discussed. If there is one person in the organization who is familiar with the subject, that person is the logical candidate, but if there are several who are knowledgeable it may be advisable to choose the one who will make the best impression.
The ideal speaker is one who knows much about the subject, whose voice and appearance will help make a good impression, and who is a polished public speaker. You won't always find ideal speakers, but if you consider the desirable characteristics and make reasoned selections, your speakers should be effective.
Preparing Speakers
No one should ever make a public appearance without preparation. Even if a hostile reporter is sitting in the reception room and demanding an immediate hearing, the spokesperson must take time to prepare for the session. On most occasions there will be enough time to do the job thoroughly, but even when time is at a premium, a few minutes must he set aside for at least a minimum of preparation. Preparation include providing information, determining the key points to be made, coaching or training, and giving suggestions on grooming and personal mannerisms.
