Tribute Speech Details:

  • The speech of tribute aims to honor, praise, celebrate or commemorate an individual, an entire group, institution or event. It is even possible to celebrate an idea or a place. Tribute speeches are often given on the occasion of the success. Praise the special characteristics or virtues.

  • The Golden Rule: inspire your audience, rather than to inform them. Generate respect for the subject being honored. Briefly describe the conditions the subject ought to have fulfilled and the qualities that are necessary to be honored

  • Your audience has to recognize the unique qualities of the subject. Research specific aspects of this tribute particularly country of origin. Look for hidden information and observations to strengthen respect.

  • I encourage you to thank your chosen candidate by giving her chocolate or a small gift and thanking her for all the hard work she does in PMU or elsewhere.
