Retirement speech

by DyslexicDreamer

Final speech on the retirement from the Chief of Navy and the RAN. This speech is looking back at the career in the RAN. Highlighting the changes which have taken place while a serving member of the RAN. To encourage all young members of ADF to continue their journey of adventure while inspiring women to reach for the sky.

3. Chapter 3

This is an attempt to add the next chapter but have no clear way to do this.

First note and thoughts on my upcoming retirement speech.

So, I have to sit down and write this speech but first I have to sort out my thoughts.

Who will be my audience? Must double check this out.

How will I reach all segments of the audience while inspiring other female officers?

Do I or should I include my early life, ADFA, setback etc?

How much about my relationship with Mike.

Should I talk about my Children and help?

Travels, studies,

This is a hard speech to write as while I have a clear understanding of the purpose of this speech.

How I became the first Chief of the Navy and to inspire

There is the audience who will be both male and female.

The speech must clearly convey a central message,

That everyone should aim high, and everyone has THE POSIBILITY OF BEING THE Chief of the Navy

ensuring that the audience understands and retains the key points.

I must remember not to make assumptions that all the audience will be interested because it is about the RAN.

How the hell will I be able to create a captivating opening, organized the body with information and examples, then conclude the speech by reinforcing the main points.

Somewhere in the speech I need to add some anecdotes, stories and examples which will connect with the audience on both intellectual and emotional levels.

I must remember to leave all Mike's jokes out.
