The Public Speaker's Companion by Stuart Turner
Public speaking is one of the most common means of communication - yet most people find speaking in public so daunting that they avoid it time and time again. This book offers practical advice for speaking at all types of function, from small family and social occasions to the major business presentation. The book outlines the basic principles behind every successful speech - audience analysis, careful preparation and confident delivery. The author, a highly experienced public speaker himself, gives hints on rehearsing, jogging an unco-operative memory and controlling nerves. He also describes how best to handle visual aids, commercial conferences and radio and TV interviews. The second part of the book contains over 1,000 carefully selected anecdotes, quotations, jokes and one-liners to give that vital note of humour to every speech, with advice on how to use them. You need never fear giving a speech again.| SKU | Unavailable |
