About this title

Synopsis

Presented in an easy-to-use A-to-Z format that covers virtually every aspect of public speaking, this book is packed with practical techniques that can help diminish your nervousness, improve your effectiveness, and boost your confidence. In addition to the standard speaking guidelines on anxiety, content, and delivery, the book focuses on the unique concerns that business presenters face, such as using PowerPoint, handling questions, and being persuasive. It offers strategies for all kinds of presentation circumstances, such as the phone conference, team presentations, speaking to clubs and organizations, words for special occasions, and other more informal, sit-down situations.

Sidebars offer a smorgasbord of information, including stores, examples, humor, and how-to tips.

This practical book will have you on your way to becoming a confident, memorable presenter quicker than you can recite the alphabet.
