Inhaltsangabe

The Orderly Conversation® is a groundbreaking resource for business presenters. For too long, business people have been taught to approach their presentations in the same way a speechmaker approaches a speech. But, business presentations are not a type of speech. They are a type of conversation. This book explores what this distinction means for you. It simplifies the process, eases your discomfort, and gives you a fresh way to think about the presentations you deliver.This book is for you if: what you've been taught about presenting doesn't work for you. the strategies you use to overcome nervousness aren't working. you find yourself breaking the rules of visual aids you've been taught. you feel that preparing and delivering presentations ought to be a lot easier (and less time-consuming) than it is.

Aus dem Klappentext

Where was this book when I was starting out?!? The Orderly Conversation provides a refreshing approach to speaking for the business professional one that provides a pathway to tap our individual strengths and bring?our authentic selves to every presentation. This could change the way people do business! Pamela Meyer, Ph.D. Author, From Workplace to Playspace: Innovating, Learning and Changing for Dynamic Engagement The Orderly Conversation recognizes that the best presentations, like the best conversations, are dialogues rather than monologues that often take unexpected paths but produce invaluable insights. This book offers a way to stay true to your presentation's plan while still capitalizing on what's happening in the moment. By doing so it helps redefine the modern business presentation. Dave Zielinski Editor, PresentationXpert newsletter, presentationxpert.com I sometimes wonder if there's any hope for professional communication in this modern era of presentation software, where we hide behind rigid outlines of bullets rather than truly converse with real people. It's exciting to finally see a work that challenges this persistent insanity. Dale and Greg's book resonates with a deep need I'm noticing among presenters today, a desperate desire to stop 'performing' and be real with audiences instead. Spread the word, gentlemen. If I had my way, your text would be required reading in every business school in the land. Robert Lane Director, Aspire Communications
