For the vast majority of us, giving a presentation is an extremely difficult and nerve-racking process, whether we´re in a one-on-one meeting, a conference room with a dozen strangers, or a lecture hall in front of thousands.
But according to Dan Roam, the visual communications expert and acclaimed author of The Back of the Napkin, it doesn´t have to be so hard. We struggle when we forget the basic steps we learned in kindergarten: show and tell.
In this short but powerful book, Roam intro-duces a new set of tools for making extraordinary presentations in any setting. He also draws on ideas he´s been honing for more than two decades, as an award-winning presenter who has brought his whiteboard everywhere from Fortune 500 companies to tiny start-ups to the White House.
Even if you´re already a good speaker, you´ll learn more about understanding your audience, organizing your content, building a clear story line, creating effective visuals, and channeling your fear into fun. And you´ll master three fundamental rules:
- When we tell the truth, we connect with our audience, we become passionate, and we find self-confidence.
- When we tell a story, we make complex concepts clear, we make ideas unforgettable, and we include everyone.
- When we use pictures, people see exactly what we mean, we captivate our audience´s mind, and we banish boredom.
From nailing the opening to leaving a lasting impression, you´ll soon be able to give the perfor-mance of a lifetime--time after time.
