Introduction
While listening to an unusually inspiring speaker or dynamic presenter, have you ever had thoughts such as:
I wish I could speak like that.
If I could speak better I know I would be promoted.
If only I could make better presentations I know my sales would increase.
I am sure my inability to make effective presentations is holding me back at work.
Page v
If so, you're not alone. Most people wish they could be better public speakers and presenters. Few, however, do anything about it. By reading this book you are taking the first step toward making yourself a more dynamic presenter and a more inspiring public speaker.
For a business owner or executive, good presentation skills are a must. Whether you're making a presentation to the board of directors, explaining the marketing plan to your staff or simply presenting your budget to the boss, it's important for you to be able to do so in a professional, convincing manner.
Powerful Presentation Skills has been designed to help you learn how to be a better public speaker and presenter. You will learn everything you need to know from how to adequately prepare for your presentation to what to do after the presentation's over. Additionally, you will learn how to overcome what most people consider to be the biggest hurdle in public speakingfear.
You owe it to yourself and your employer to improve your public speaking and presentation skills. If you do, it is inevitable that you will do better at work.
But there's more! If you're asking yourself, "But what's in it for me?" the answer is "plenty!"
John Ruskin said, "The highest reward for toil is not what you get from it, but what you become by it." If this is true, then your reward for becoming a more dynamic speaker will not have as much to do with what you get as it will with what you become.
