If this question means "What should be the first things you say in a speech?" then the following is a good sequence:

1) Start with saying who you are and giving the audience some reason to think you're qualified to speak about the subject. "My name's Joe Hangaround and I'm a theme park ride queue manager".

2) Follow immediately with the "hook". This should be an anecdote they can relate to that links with the subject you want to speak about. Make it up earlier - it doesn't have to be true. For example: "On my way here today, a guy took a whole three seconds to move off when the lights changed. The driver behind honked his horn. So is patience a virtue or a hindrance? That's what I want to talk to you about today."

Remember your audience will make their minds up about you in the first 30 seconds; after that it's hard to change their opinion, even if you go on to speak for an hour.
