Effective Presentation Skills
Our current bestselling title, with over a quarter million copies in print, is simply a great guide to the preparation for public speaking, and for presentations to a group. The new material in this edition comes straight from the extensive overhaul of the two-day seminar Steve Mandel offers. It reflects the very best in the newest techniques he has found successful for the process of organizing, planning, preparation and delivery of presentations. Among other topics he covers is the latest in new technology for presentation, and he does so in a way that doesn't needlessly complicate, date, or limit the information. From the original assessment of an individual's skills, to the final delivery, there is no better brief introduction to the subject available.

Effective Presentation Skills by Steve Mandel, is a book that offers tips on how to improve and conduct a successful presentation.
It is a quick read and a short book.
The content of the book is direct and sufficient. I usually complain about nonfiction books, because they tend to repeat points and over-explain topics, however, this book did not do this. The writing style is simple; Easy to read. I flew through this book in less than an hour.
I did find the skills the book contains to be useful. I haven't applied them yet, nevertheless, the book made me aware in which area I am lacking and it has opened my eyes on what I should do to better my presentations.
I would recommend you this book if you need to do presentations. Although the book is old, it did not come across as outdated, as it teaches skills that can be applied on the technology you prefer. Overall, it is a nice quick educational read.
(4/5) stars
