New Speech Breakdown for the 2003 Toastmasters World Champion of Public Speaking, Jim Key!

Jim Key's gave an exciting speech with a lot of interesting data. Each breakdown I do brings with it a new technique or perspective that differs from the rest, and that's what makes them so useful if your goal is to become a better speaker or speech writer.

There is a tremendous amount of insight in reverse-engineering a world class speech such as this one. And each one provides a wealth of information.

The speech may look seamless to an audience, but it didn't get to be that way by chance. This speech is built from many different components, and knowing what those components are will give you the knowledge to build your own.  

The breakdown includes the following plus much more in-depth analysis

  • ​Full speech transcript
  • Speech statistics (Word count, time of speech, title)
  • Humor statistics and analysis 
  • Use of "You" focused words
  • Foundational Phrase + how often it was used
  • Time Transitions
  • Stories
  • Callbacks
  • And much more!

About this guy...


Matt Kramer - Tactical Talks - Public Speaking

Howdy! My name is Matt Kramer and I used to suffer excruciating death when speaking in front of a group, now I LOVE it. Overcoming this fear has changed my life and it can change yours, too. My focus is to help you overcome the fear of public speaking so you can build the confidence to go after what you want in life. I also analyze and tactically dissect speeches.
