Appearance: Dress and Posture
First impressions count: dressing appropriately for the occasion and using an open posture can improve the visual delivery of a speech.

Eye Contact and Facial Expression
Eye contact and facial expressions provide important social and emotional information to the audience.

Movement and Gesture
Natural body movements and gestures can strengthen and enhance the message but repetitive, unnecessary movements can distract from delivery.

Adapting to Handouts and Visuals
Visual aids can play a large role in how the audience understands and processes the information that is presented.

Proxemics
Social distance between people is reliably correlated with physical distance: intimate, personal, social and public.
