Presenting. If that one word made your blood run cold and hands sweat, then this book is for you. Presenting has to be one of the most nerve-racking things that we have to deal with in life. The thought of having everyone’s eyes on us as we stand before them, bare and ready to be judged, is something that most people fear. Your hands become clammy and your heart rate picks up. You wonder how you will ever make it through. Will they like what you have to say? What will they think when you take the stage? All these things bounce around in your head as you prepare for the big day. But do you want to know a secret? Even the most confident and experienced speakers get the jitters. Yes! You are not alone in this. It is a normal feeling. While it may seem terrifying and stressful to step in front of a room full of people, by reading this book, you find that there are many ways in which you can relieve that stress and become confident in yourself. You will learn how to take a room by storm and keep the audience engaged, hanging on to your every word until the very end. You will understand the ins and outs of making a successful and interesting presentation that impresses and sticks with others even after you have long finished your presentation. Techniques in this book have worked for me through a 43 year career in my community service journey and will be effective for you as well. The Presenter's Dilemma Which line stood out from all the others in the book? Opportunity is missed by most people because it was dressed in overalls and looks like work.
