In the first edition of this book, David Peoples made the bold claim that he would show readers how to "walk the road to glory". Four years and fifty thousand copies later, Presentations Plus has become the most successful business presentations how-to book ever written, and at last report, traffic on the road to glory was bumper-to-bumper. Now, incredible as it may seem, this new edition is even better than the first! In addition to the "battlefield-tested" techniques for becoming a great presenter and persuader found in the first, this edition includes all new chapters on the do's and don'ts of team presentations, presentations as marketing tools, using hi-tech vs. low-tech visuals, and a "follow the bouncing ball" presentation planning guide. All new illustrations and checklists are also included.
