Recommendation

Joey Asher, president of Speechworks, teaches businesspeople how to speak in public. In this compact manual, featuring small pages with big type, Asher presents his techniques for delivering solid presentations. Some of them might read as contrary to usual practice, such as encouraging audience questions during your speech, instead of after, or repeating just three points. Asher introduces helpful procedures and explains the steps – from rehearsal to Q&A – to delivering a riveting business presentation. getAbstract suggests that anyone who must make presentations will greatly benefit from reading Asher’s eminently helpful book. Now you can stand proud at the lectern knowing that you will be ready.

Take-Aways

  • You can deliver a killer presentation in 15 minutes: seven minutes for your speech and eight minutes for Q&A.
  • Most business presentations are verbose, irrelevant and pointless.
  • Sufficient rehearsal makes for a great presentation.
