 Tips for
developing an
awesome
farewell speech
Who is your audience?

Who will be listening to your speech? Are they your

colleagues? friends? family members? Keep in mind your audience
and you develop the tone of your speech. For one audience there
will be more sentiment, for another more humor, and for yet
another more solemnity. Choose the right tone for your listeners.
Time it right

Different venues and situations call for different lengths

of goodbye speeches. Find out in advance how much time you
have been allotted.
Personalize the presentation

Include quotes, anecdotes and interesting stories in your

farewell speech. This is the time to illustrate why you are sad to go
but happily looking forward, as well.
Create a central message or theme
A core message for your farewell speech will help tie
everything together and make it easier to develop the content
of your presentation. This message can be a summation of the
impact the person leaving has made or a parting inspiration
for those who are left behind.
Express gratitude

Be sure to express appreciation for the time spent at the

place being left. If you are the one leaving, be thankful for your
time there. If someone else is leaving, be grateful for the time
they spent with you. This person made an impact, or a farewell
speech wouldn’t be in order.
Be authentic

It is especially important for a farewell speech to be

given in a relaxed, humanly authentic manner. Don’t read the
speech. Don’t be stuffy. Be genuine and natural.

Promotion Speech

or something about your workplace to grab
the attention of your audience! If in the
first thirty seconds of your speech you can
do that then, you my friend have won over
your audience.

Recognize People:

promotion speech, it’s best to recognize
and thank people who made this possible
for you. This is an integral part of a

mention anyone who might have
impacted your life even a little bit so as to
make this possible for you.

are or maybe talk about your organization.

Summarize:
Before ending your speech, try to
summarize each point that you have made
and mention a few lines about them. Like

who helped you achieve this or maybe your
organization.
The Ending:

bang! Now you don’t want to ruin it for

out so well. So add some humorous quote
or something else and let everyone enjoy!
