How to be a Presentation God
IN THIS SUMMARY
Presentations are a necessary element of business; in fact, there are over 30 million business presentations given on a daily basis. Still, presentations are considered one of the least productive areas of business and are universally avoided. Scott Schwertly’s book, How to be a Presentation God, aims to change that. Unsuccessful presenters often try too hard to entertain or get bogged down in data, but a half-hearted presentation is a waste of time for both the audience and the presenter. A presentation that does not move people, products, ideas, or values is not worth giving. Schwertly agrees with John F. Kennedy’s statement that “The only reason to give a speech is to change the world.”
