Say it With Presentations

By Gene Zelazny

Another interesting book (though not as “radical” as the Beyond Bullet Points one ;o)) on presentations. I definitely need to start re-using the storyboard idea when I create presentations (did it looong ago, but somehow the good habit vanished in the hurry to complete my presentations…).

Review from amazon.co.uk:
“Say It With Presentations” contains presentation techniques from the bestselling author of “Say It With Charts”. A top-notch business presentation is equal parts information and entertainment. “Say It With Presentations” helps managers create the perfect mix of information, graphics, pacing, and “off-the-cuff” humor. It includes hands-on information on everything from defining the situation to developing the right mix of visual aids-to interest your audience without overpowering them. Since 1985, Gene Zelazny’s bestselling “Say It With Charts” has given presenters the building blocks for dynamic presentations. Now, his graphics-rich “Say It With Presentations” guides the reader step-by-step through the process, utilizing up-to-date business audience research to deliver: dozens of practical tips-from communication masters, including Tom Peters; tested techniques to set the perfect time-right from the start; and tips and tools for using the latest audio/visual technology.

My rating: ***
