I never knew presentations could be so demanding--or so powerful. For anyone preparing a powerpoint or any other kind of presentation to inspire, change attitudes, or buy your product, I heartily recommend this book

What you don't know about giving a PERSUASIVE presentation can kill you! This book lays out the inside secrets that the real pros know that most of us do not know. An amazing resource that I refer to over and over again.

I think Josh Gordon's "Presentations That Change Minds" is a must-read for almost everyone, because each of us, whatever our job description or field, in business or personal life, has a need to `change minds'. Some of us every day if we're selling, the rest of us pretty regularly if we stop to think about it. Whether we're engineers or homemakers, employees or bosses, butchers or bakers or candlestick makers. Josh manages to lay out a platform for `selling' that is down-to-earth, packed with relevant examples to make his points. He deals with basics, which many of us find easy to forget, while coming up with sparkling ideas to make our time with someone we'd like to sell both more productive and more satisfying - whether it's spouse or child, co-worker or boss, difficult prospect or grizzled news editor.."

I have had coaching on presenting and studied speaking from a content, and platform perspective for over 10 years. This book is a great find as it had ideas no one has put forward for me before in all the 10 years of working to improve. A great resource for those of us who need to speak in front of clients often, in any role. Great read and recommend it!

Gordon adds a new level of sophistication to speaking skills. This is a fine addition to anyone's speaking library.
