Where marks are usually lost
Stress in·FORM·a·tive on the second syllable but in·for·MA·tion on the third—they appear close together. DED·i·cat·ing is first-syllable; suc·CEED·ing, pro·VID·ing, ap·PEAL·ing are second. Keep the -ing in all of them and the -s in goals, efforts.
General tip: audience appears twice—say it as three syllables /AW-dee-ənce/ and link to your audience as one phrase.
