What does the statement, "All of us possess a network of interlocking values, some of which are in conflict with others," mean? What are the implications for public speech?

What will be an ideal response?

The ideal answer would include the following:
1. Many factors go into making people who they are. Shared experiences, social mores, and personal concerns all have an impact on one's values. These factors can influence the way people see events and how important an issue is to them, which in turn can mold their values.
2. Our sense of belonging is rooted in the nature of the groups with which we identify, which in turn shapes our values. But we typically belong to more than one group. No single group membership is foremost in all our decisions. While this creates a network of interlocking memberships and values, it may cause our allegiances to these memberships or values to occasionally come into conflict.
3. As a speaker, our task is to analyze what set of motivations or values will have the most saliency for our audience at hand, and mold our speech to fit those needs. We do this by analyzing audience demographics, conducting research beforehand, and adapting in the moment.
