Not only is Koegel's book the perfect "how-to" manual for public speakers, Koegel's simple (yet seldom followed) guidelines have been very effective for the sales professionals within my organization. A company may have a great product or service, but they will lose sales unless they can effectively communicate their value proposition. Make every presentation, including marketing presentation count - Koegel's techniques have raised the "batting average" of my firm's sales team. This book is a must read for public speakers, managers AND sales professionals.

If only all self-help books were like this one...

Informative, clear, helpful, short and to the point.

In the past few months since I purchased this book I already used what I learned on numerous occasions, and to great results (read: standing ovation!).

I consider myself a good presenter already, but Mr. Koegel really pointed out some issues that I'm trying to improve so I can become exceptional.

In short, if you speak in public, get this book!

This is an excellent book especially for people that are new to public speaking. It helps allay the fears with humor and simple, easy-to-follow instructions. I would recommend this book to anyone who might have a presentation to make and is a little nervous or unsure of how they will do.

Whenever I must speak in front of a group, I refer to this book during my preperation. It contains vital information that is presented in a clear, concise format. Highly recommend this book.

Tim Keogel has done an excellent job with his book. The Exceptional Presenter is the ideal book for busy presenters who need a thorough grounding in the art and science of presentation skills. The ability to give a great presentation can be a tremendous career booster and The Exceptional Presenter will help you finetune those skills.

Ok, I am not a big fan of how-to self-help books, especially when it comes to public speaking tips. Most get lost in the weeds with information overload, impractical advice, or instructions so basic that you end up skipping whole chapters. Not The Exceptional Presenter. It gets right to the point, gives just the right amount of guidance, and then allows you to apply it to your own style and occasion. And it is not too serious, either. A lot of humor to keep the pages turning. You can read this in one night, but you will be re-reading it for years as you prepare for presentations. Exceptional Presenter has the right balance of techinques, case studies, helpful insights, and worksheets. The best new presentation/public speaking book on the market right now -- and written by someone who trains professionals for a living. Highly recommend it.

I read this book while waiting between flights at an airport in Florida. As a motivational speaker, I can truly say that I have never read anything better on the subject of how to be an outstanding presenter.

I just completed this book and it was perfect! There are only a number of sales tools I would require for all my sales people and this in one of them. My only regret is that I did not have such a book years ago!
