Whether it's in a one-on-one meeting with the boss or at an international conference to an audience of thousands, presenting information is a integral part of modern working life. And since few businesses offer any training in presentation skills, nearly everyone dreads these occasions: even the most confident can give mediocre talks simply through stage fright and poor preparation. This in-depth, easy-to-follow guide offers a thorough grounding in the art of public speaking and presentation. Emphasizing the importance of proper preparation, it walks readers step by step through every stage -- developing a key message, designing effective slides and audiovisual aids, dealing with anxiety, appropriate dress, achieving good delivery, and dealing with questions from the floor. Written in clear, jargon-free English, this practical guide aids those wishing to hone their speaking skills as well as those gearing up for their first talk.

Most people have to speak in public sometime during their life. Even if their working life doesn't require it, most are likely to face an audience for social events such as weddings and funerals. Why is public speaking so scary for so many? The fear of failure can increase the worry factor exponentially, making the process stressful to the point that many simply refuse to do it. The key to gaining the confidence to overcome fear, says author Drew Provan, is thorough, methodical preparation. In "Public Speaking in Easy Steps, " he takes readers through each step of the process: the initial invitation, planning the speech so the underlying message is crystal clear, using props or audiovisual equipment, planning for the day, and establishing an identity as a composed and assured speaker. "Public Speaking in Easy Steps" shows reluctant readers how to give a successful speech that is relaxed and enjoyable for both speaker and audience.
