Good actors know this and are good at warming up their voices. But a good speech coach can guide non-actors through a quick warmup. Here's how it's done.
1) [...]

Operative words are a vital tool for actors. Basically, they are the most important words in the script and help get the meaning across to audience members. Here's an example for a script from the CEO of Delta Airlines.
