An excellent, concise summary of the basics of mastering public speaking.

[Ralf Kruse · Rating 4 out of 5]

How to become a better presenter? How to really deliver you message? The book describes 15 steps to improve. I wouldn’t describe my presentation skills as bad, but still search for ways to get better. I read the book a half year ago and use this book as a guide to improve my presentation skills. In my last presentation I used a lot of concepts from the books. The feedback was really great, while I see many opportunities to still improve.
The book is a good and concrete guide for people, who want to improve their presentation skills.

The Seven Minute Star will definitely turn you to star in just seven minutes. A great book to be able to speak in front of large audience with confidence and without any kind of fear lurking inside the mind. A very light read and explanation is with proper examples and facts of day to day life that is the crux of real transformation as far as public speaking is concerned. One must read this book to inspire, to persuade, to motivate your audiences with your speeches in future.
