Jerry Weissman
The Power Presenter
Techniques, Style, and Strategy to Be Suasive
FT Press, 2009
Aperçu
If you suffer from a fear of public speaking, conceptualize your presentation as an interaction rather than a performance.
Recommendation
For many individuals, public speaking is a primal fear. Delivering a speech summons the same jacked-up fight-or-flight response that animals depend upon to survive predator attacks. Alas, when you give a speech, you can’t fight your way out of trouble or run away from it. Instead, you must summon the courage to speak. Premier speaking coach Jerry Weissman provides a comprehensive set of public speaking techniques to help you win over any audience. If you hope to rise in sales, business or politics, you must be able to deliver a great presentation. Weissman’s book will show you how.
