Writing an Outline

Whether you need to deliver a speech for a class, you have a presentation to give at work, or you’re writing an essay, a solid outline is the starting point for success. Regardless what type of informative outline you are writing, the basic parts remain same.
Each will include an introduction, a body, and a conclusion.

The introduction generally needs to:

• Grab the reader’s or audience’s attention
• Present your thesis statement (main idea)
• Establish your credibility (you are a corporate recruiter for XXXX company)
• Preview what is to come (history, unique qualities of the company, and why work for this company)

The body:

• Outlines your main points, with sub-points and supporting facts
• Includes transitions between main points

The conclusion:

• Signals the end is coming
• Restates your thesis (main idea)
• Ends strongly, but quickly, wrapping it up and driving your point home

Creating a Basic Outline

This is a very basic outline that you can use to get started with either a presentation or a writing assignment. Too often, when we approach speaking & writing, we think in terms of a complete product—not in terms of an outline. It’s extremely important to begin every task with a clear and thorough outline. Your audience will only be able to follow your paper or speech if it is very clearly organized.

For speaking, develop most of the outline with key words in order to assure that you will extemporize and talk to your audience; you should write your thesis statement (main idea), transition sentences, and all main point statements as complete sentences (and deliver them as written) so that you have a speech that is easy to follow. It’s generally best to stick to 3-5 main points.
