REAL TALK details, step-by-step, what to do in your presentations so you look and sound like a master on the mic. REAL TALK goes a step further and also details what not to do and provides the rationale behind every recommendation.
If you have ever wondered about how to control your jitters before speaking, how to establish your credibility even if you do not have an impressive background or biography, what to do to get your audience engaged without using a lot of bells and whistles, or how to keep the audience from giving you blank stares when you ask "Are there any questions?" then REAL TALK has the answers to these and dozens of other presentation challenges.
Get a full understanding of how to embrace the four pillars of how you look, how you sound, what you say, and how you say it so every presentation you make is consistently dynamic and enthusiastically received by your audiences.
No one will ever again leave your presentations disappointed, and you will proudly walk away from each performance knowing you crushed it. REAL TALK gives you real direction and real advice on how to make presentations that sizzle every single time!
