Audience Analysis
Communication is an important part of everyday life.   People are constantly communicating with other people daily but not a lot of people take the time to study their audience.   The way people communicate with each other depends on who they are communicating with.   The way a person speaks to their parents, friends, boss, coworkers, teachers are all different forms of communication.   There are also many things to consider when making a presentation in front of a group because there are so many different people that will be in the audience.   The speaker must prepare themselves as much as possible to avoid any misunderstandings that may come up during the presentation.   There are many ways to insure that a presentation is successful as long as the speaker knows who their audience will be.   The key to a great presentation is great communication with the audience.
When speaking to a group of managers, salespeople, and customers about the quarterly sales information of a business it is important that the speaker take all the different titles into consideration.   There are business people and consumers that are going to be together in the audience so the terms that will be spoken should be more of a semi- professional tone.   The information should be professional but also understandable to the entire audience.   There will be a wide variety of people in the audience so the speaker should educate themselves as much as possible on their audience.   The speaker does not want to unintentionally give the wrong impression so if there is a major ethic race that will be present then the speaker should look into anything that may seem rude.   In some countries eye contact is disrespectful but in others it is rude when a person is not looking at you when they are speaking.   These little things can make a big difference, especially when dealing with people involved in a business...
