A speaker might present solutions before explaining the problem in a problem-solution speech when the audience is hostile to the problem-solution topic. In such cases, leading with solutions can help to engage the audience and mitigate their negativity towards the problem being addressed. Additionally, it may also be effective when the audience knows all about the problems, as they might be more receptive to hearing about the solutions rather than being reminded of the issues they are already aware of.
