Holidays at work are increasingly turning from a traditional feast into corporate parties. They turn employees from passive listeners into active participants. How to speak at a corporate party and not lose face?
It is necessary
- - prizes;
- - musical accompaniment;
- - props for the performance.
Instructions
Step 1
Develop a script for your speech. If you have been appointed as the host, you will have to create a general plan for the evening and assign roles to departments or other employees. Analyze what props will be needed to implement the script. Discuss with management a possible budget for the holiday. Find prizes for the winners of the contests. They can also be awarded for each performance.
Step 2
Assess your creativity and talent in the team. If there are people who can sing or dance, assign them the appropriate numbers. Consider their reactions. If speaking in public is stressful for a person, it's best to look elsewhere. Choose an employee to lead the evening. This is a rather difficult role. If there is no suitable candidate in the team, invite a professional animator. He will be able to keep the attention of the audience and hold all competitions.
Step 3
Prepare your own talk. If you've been given an already developed role, learn the text. This will make you feel more at ease and at ease. Consider your own costume if the role requires it. Even a few details of clothing - a scarf or a hat - will help you get into the image. A bright suit is already half the battle.
Step 4
Take your time while performing. Even the funniest lyrics won't be heard if you rush and swallow the words. Pause after each phrase. This will give them meaning and give the listeners time to process what has been said. Don't laugh yourself! This will ruin the whole effect of your performance.
Step 5
Find a soundtrack for your performance. This is especially important for dance numbers or pantomime. Music can also be a protagonist if it hints to the audience about some circumstances known to them. Don't over complicate your number. Better practice it down to the smallest detail.
