Synopsis
People don't want to see how clever you are-they want to discover how clever they are. This is one of Roy Underhill's guiding principles in Khrushchev's Shoe .An audience-centered approach to making inventive presentations, this unique book offers lessons from some of today's most diverse personalities such as Garrison Keillor, Larry King, Katie Couric, and historical figures such as Martin Luther King, Jr., and Francis Bacon. A field guide for anyone who will benefit from more effective dialog, Khrushchev's Shoe is ideal for educators, trainers, advocates, and presenters-or any person who simply wants to do a better job with an audience of even one. Its strategies go beyond bland presentation techniques to reveal the underlying principles that make interaction both more meaningful and more enjoyable.
