The world of public speaking is changing. Today's speakers face a conversational revolution heralded by a rapid increase in global connectivity, the growth of social technology, and with it an unprecedented immediacy to communication. Our audiences are no longer content to simply hear us, they want to be heard by us. This means that many of our old standards of presentation no longer apply. It also makes the prospect of distinguishing our voice from the over seven-billion others in the world seem daunting at best, almost impossible at worst. In presentIMPACT: The Speaker's Guide we take on this challenge by making presentation a science. Over the next 100 pages, we will take you step by step through the process of overcoming public speaking anxiety, building confidence, and delivering clear, effective, and professional presentations. The lessons you will learn in this Guide are infinitely transferrable across all standards of communication. By applying them not only on the stage, but in all aspects of your communication, you have the opportunity to become a better speaker, leader, conversationalist, and presenter.
