Stand & Deliver — a Master Class in Making Powerful Presentations
Mark and Mary-Jane Barnes
Stand & Deliver is a journey through the A to Z of presenting. With unique skills self-analysis and practical, incisive content, Stand & Deliver guides you through the tactics needed to plan, prepare, practise and deliver powerful presentations.
Beginning with a self-scoring skills analysis, Stand & Deliver introduces the four corner-stones which underpin any successful presentation and provides a clear process for preparation, structure and keeping to time. With guidelines on non-verbal communications, voice and delivery, as well as tips on managing nerves, it will enable even the least confident of presenters to get started; whilst for the more experienced, Stand & Deliver is a rich resource of 'next-step' ideas, designed to hone existing skills, grow credibility and increase professional impact.
Stand & Deliver is a product of its time. It addresses the challenges faced by the 'PowerPoint generation', highlighting the dangers of becoming over dependent on technology; it introduces the idea of 'gisting decks' and shows how best to leverage benefit when presenting with others, or as part of a team.
Used by business people, or as a resource by coaches and trainers, the wide ranging and all encompassing Stand & Deliver can offer foundation skills and deeper insights and nudges, or be used as support materials for an entire training programme.
Whatever the experience level, Stand & Deliver provides everything that is needed to prepare and deliver powerful presentations — that have real impact!
