I just purchased The Exceptional Presenter. While I'm not even finished with the book, I came into an important client presentation today with a new intent--to deliver an exceptional presentation! I have felt like these presentations in the past weren't great at all and decided to take exact advice from the little bit of the book that I have read so far and put it into practice TODAY.
I wrote out my introduction statement of intent and went into a room and PRACTICED my intro to the presentation over and over. This was a conference call presentation so I was alone in aroom, with a senior director and one of our VP's on the line listening.
It went GREAT! The clients were engaged and asking questions and at the end, one of the presidents, I was presenting to gave a great plug about how much he appreciated our service!
I was so encouraged when, in addition to this, as I was wrapping up the presentation our VP and the director were sending me emails ... Read More

A solid book about giving presentations. You will need other books in order to get a full overview of how to present effectively.
I thought the book lacked real world examples. It was mainly the theory behind presenting effectively but it does not show you examples.
For example, Presentation Zen helps with the design elements of your presentation and telling a simple story.
I would also recommend an Ebook called New Rules of Public Speaking (www.newrulesofpublicspeaking.com) because it has modern examples of speeches, pitches that work. It has links to dozens of Youtube clips and you can watch Steve Jobs or Tim Ferris while reading a description of what they do well.
To master powerpoint you need Beyond Bullet Points. That is an information packed book worth $20.

Without having the book in front of me, I can recall specifics of what it's about: OPEN UP and OWN the ROOM! O-organization; P-passion; E-engage the audience; N-natural; U-understand your audience; P-practice! I can recall these points when I get up to do a presentation, and I can easily visualize myself and my hand gestures, especially the do's and don'ts of what's effective in getting my points across. I was embarrassed to find out that I have made the most typical mistakes of presenters (especially hand gestures and verbal graffiti), but was grateful to find that out. It's like looking in a mirror and seeing that you have something on your face, and it's been there all day! I consider this to be the most helpful book in coaching me on how to do presentations that I have ever read!

I'm in front of groups for a living and for those that are either uncomfortable with that thought or just not experienced this is a great book. It is full of solid advice on how to be a more confident and effective presenter. If you have to get in front of groups for business get this. Regardless of your skill level or experience a good review at a minimum. Add this one to the library and refer to it often.
