It recommends that an introduction should boost morale, get the audience thinking about the topic, and keep thoughts connected. Introductions may be formal, focusing on names and titles, or casual, emphasizing the subject matter and goals. An introduction should discuss why the speaker's topic is important and their qualifications, keep a positive tone, include some humor, provide background on the speaker, and close by announcing the speaker's name and title.
