Great Reference Book

I had to get this book for a business communications class that I am taking and I found it to be a good tool for public speaking. It is a great reference book to have on hand because everyday you are presenting yourself, whether it be on the job, a job interview or speaking in front of people.

All you need to know about speaking in public

Marjorie Brody's information, guidelines & tips are clear, concise, & well-laid out.Few of us think of speaking to an audience with the same focus as Olympic athletes face their races. SPEAKING IS AN AUDIENCE-CENTERED SPORT can change that for you, especially if you are thinking of a career that will include public speaking.If you are already grappling with such public presentations, then SPEAKING IS AN AUDIENCE-CENTERED SPORT will be another useful tool in your efforts for effective, memorable communication.As an author speaking at readings & signings, I devoured SPEAKING IS AN AUDIENCE-CENTERED SPORT, & have returned to it, again & again, to boost my confidence, focus my meandering mind, & remember the tips, instructions & warm-up exercises.

Here's a good one...

I thought I already knew how to give effective presentations, but Marjorie Brody's book told me I had a lot more to learn. Now I know how to better understand my audience's needs and tailor my presentations to meet them. This is really an excellent book for people in all different fields. I wish all the presenters I listen to would read it too!
