Presentations (HBR 20-Minute Manager Series)

VERY GOOD UPDATE ON PRESENTATIONS.WILL BE USING THIS INFO IN THE NEXT FEW DAYSI LIKE THE BOOK IN THIS COMPACT FORM

I'm very gladly to read this book, was a great benefit and I got the skills to make any presentation most powerful. There is a very important aspects like how to get the audience's attention.

Good book! Excellent content for that presenter who needs it, it explores all the relevant content etc. Concise book and straight to the point

Good book

As a quick read manual for giving presentations I consider it a good idea to read this book and look at some of the reference materials it suggests at the end. It is a very good how to book on creating a good and successful presentation for any sized group of people ranging from five to five hundred and more if you have the means. I hope the entire series of these books is as good as this one is and I wish I had more of them. I will keep this one for reference if I need it later on myself or if someone I know may find it useful. Overall a good book but a bit short on the more tactful end of what needs to be used and the how it needs to be used.

A couple of times per year I am asked to be a presenter at the two local county wide mini-conferences. The Presentations book in the 20-Minute Manager Series gives an outline form of all considerations for getting ready, doing the presentation and the follow-up with the audience at the end. The major topics covered are, to define your goal, know your audience, craft your message, identify your resources, plan your visuals, practice your delivery, deliver your presentation, manage responses, debrief your presentation and follow-up with the audience. Approaching a presentation with logical steps will make it easier to stay on topic and give a presentation that is meaningful to the audience. Presentations, 20-Minute Manager Series is a handy reference to make a person a better, more organized presenter.My thanks to Harvard Business Law Press & Goodreads First Reads Giveaway for my copy of Presentations.

A short basic guide for developing a good presentation. Needed more ideas on visual content creation with apt examples. Only then it can be used by corporates

A good short read, examples are missing, which could have made it more effective for readers to understand. Good summarisation, though

love it

This book is a quick guide on mind blowing presentation techniques. It has all the necessary minute details which you would not like to miss while giving a presentation. Also I would suggest to go through some presentation videos on YT, as you observe the mistakes that are covered in the book so you can work for improvements.
