The choreography of presenting : the 7 essential abilities of effective presenters

Zoller, Kendall (author.).

Summary: "Most presenters are experts in their field, however, not all presenters are experts at presenting. Wherever a presenter might be on the continuum from novice to expert, this book provides specific, research-based skills and strategies to support high-impact presentations. Every skill is described in detail by how it looks, sounds and feels as well as the influence of these patterns on the perception and thinking of the audience. Additionally the book describes how to use the audience's nonverbal responses as evidence to evaluate the effectiveness of one's delivery. The author has presented a strong rationale for revising the manuscript at this time. First is simply the emerging research base on how communication influences the brain. We know a lot more about how emotions are formed and what influences their intensities. What we have learned that congruence between nonverbal patterns and linguistic structures are necessary to be more effective.
