Before reading the book and listening to its audio version, I took four 3-semester-unit courses in Communication from colleges. Last month Dec 98, I had the benefit to attend a seminar of AMA on Effective Presentation Skills. Barbara was the instructor. I have learned so many new things never taught in colleges from her; but I could not digest them thoroughly due to intense pace of a typical seminar--too much knowledge to be gained in a too limited 3-day time. Now, reading the book without any rush, listening to the tape while driving, all her experienced, precious, practical, even revolutionay tips in presentation techniques come back to my mind in a so well organized way easy to remember. I can right away apply them in my daily job communication situations. Thanks a lot, Barbara. Your work is changing my life, my communication skills, my presentation techniques; especially when I am a non-native speaker, Vietnamese coming here since 1991, and have to make frequent presentation as part of my job programmer analyst II with Santa Clara County. I owe you so much.
