Many of us have implemented oral communication instruction in our
design courses, lab courses, and other courses where students give
presentations. Others have students give presentations without
instruction on how to become a better presenter. Many of us, then,
could use a concise book that guides us on what instruction on oral
communication should include, based on input from executives from
different settings. This instruction will help our students get
jobs and make them more likely to move up the career ladder,
especially in these hard economic times. Oral Communication
Excellence for Engineers and Scientists: Based on Executive Input
is the tool we need. It is based on input from over 75 executives
with engineering or science degrees, leading organizations that
employ engineers and scientists. For the presentation chapter, the
executives described what makes a "stellar presentation." And for
every other chapter, they gave input-on, for example, how to
effectively communicate in meetings and in teams, how to excel at
phone communication, how to communicate electronically to
supplement oral communication, and how to meet the challenges of
oral communication. They also provided tips on cross-cultural
communication, listening, choosing the appropriate medium for a
communication, elevator pitches, and posters; and using oral
communication to network on the job. Oral Communication Excellence
for Engineers and Scientists includes exercises and activities for
students and professionals, based on instruction that has improved
Georgia Tech's students' presentation skills at a statistically
significant level. Slides demonstrating best practices are included
from Capstone Design students around the country. Table of
