Description

“A practical guide to thumb through before every speech, whether it’s your first or 500th.”—USA Today

“A must-read guide to delivering a memorable speech and leaving the audience wanting more.”—Hon. Frank McKenna, former Canadian ambassador to the United States

Great speakers aren't just born; they prepare and they practice. The Elements of Great Public Speaking takes the fear out of taking the podium, distilling essential techniques and tricks for just about any speaking occasion.

Experienced businesspeople, nervous students, and eulogists alike can benefit from the author's simple, direct, and tested advice on everything from body language and word choice to responding to the audience and overcoming stage fright. Because there's no such thing as a boring topic—just boring speakers—The Elements of Great Public Speaking shows how to look, sound, and act like someone worth listening to.

“A great book that really does set forth how to deliver high-energy presentations.”—Mark M. Maraia, author of Rainmaking Made Simple: What Every Professional Must Know
