'A wonderful contribution to the presentation field. As a presenter
for 15 years, I have purchased, read, or perused many books on
presentations. This is the most useful and captivating book I have
read thus far. . . . I love the dollops of research integrated into
the manuscript. Since brain research is my area, I am happy that
others will see how it relates. The author makes important
connections between preparation, presentation, and prudence. This
Backstage Pass can make the difference between an acceptable
presentation and an outstanding one!' - Marilee Sprenger ,
Professional Development Consultant, Presenter, and Author 'The
warm, friendly, conversational tone makes it feel like the author
is right there with you, cheering you on as you put her tried and
true suggestions to work. . . . Her suggestions resonate with my
own professional experience. I found myself laughing, agreeing, and
shouting 'yes!' (even though there was no one in the room to hear
me). . . .I plan to re-read this book periodically to remind myself
of this powerful advice and apply it to my own presentations' -
Lynell Burmark , Thornburg Center Associate, Presenter, and Author
A how-to guide to working effectively with adult audiences in small
or large presentation settings. With an emphasis not only on
communicating information, but also on winning audience approval
and buy-in, this friendly and humorous little book can be read in
one sitting on the plane or train as a do-it-yourself mentor,
speaking coach, image consultant, and train-the-trainer all in one.
The topics range from "pack for success and catch the early train"
through "closers for summary, review, reflection, and connection."
Also featured are strategies for designing audience handouts,
seating the audience, maintaining group energy, working with angry
and challenging audiences, structuring breaks so the audience
returns after the break, and more. Assessment methods include
self-evaluation, formal evaluations, and partnering with trusted
colleagues for collaborative observation and feedback.
