Speak To Win: How To Present With Power In Any Situation.

This book offers a great deal of information about how to make excellent presentations in almost any situation. Great presentations require high levels of energy, vitality, enthusiasm, warmth, and friendliness from the presenter. Have fun while you present and enjoy what you are doing. Pretend that you are sharing great content with friends that you care about. Have a clear objective. Learn the language of the audience and their company. Rehearse, rehearse, rehearse your presentation. Check out the room before you present. Keep your arms at your side and not up in front of you when you talk. Tell them stories. Use silence and pauses, smile, and give a wonderful presentation.
