Basic presentation skills training. Nothing life changing or groundbreaking, but still a good refresher for those wanting to bone up on the basics of good presentations.

[TyAnn · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kevin and Russ did a great job of presenting information in a compelling and helpful way. This book is packed with "I can implement this now" moments, and I've already put a few nuggets into action. Easy to read, easy to understand, and with easy to find gems. Definitely worth a spot in my key business books shelf.
