As consultants and trainers who specialize in public speaking and other elements vital to a persuasive corporate production, George Morrisey, Thomas Sechrest, and Wendy Warman are well-versed in the good (as well as the bad and the ugly). The fourth edition of their time-tested guide, Loud and Clear: How to Prepare and Deliver Effective Business and Technical Presentations, offers step-by-step advice on critical components from visuals to logistics to delivery. It unequivocally views preparation as the crux, however, and fully outlines six integrated planning procedures certain to improve one's chance for success. --Howard Rothman
Product Description
How do you want your next presentation to come across? as a bland outline that glosses over your topic? as a ”data dump,” confusing or boring your audience? as nerve-wracking torture for everyone involved? The key to effective presentations is preparation, so Loud and Clear shows you six steps for planning any technical or business presentation. It discusses the best use of audiovisual aids and explains the basics of set-up and delivery. Loud and Clear’s practical, step-by-step advice has helped more than 300,000 technical experts become expert presenters as well. Whether you present proposals to new clients or a weekly status report, Loud and Clear will help you deliver your message clearly and confidently.

Excellent instructional reference October 19, 2000
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Loud and Clear is an outstanding resource for producing an effective presentation. The emphasis on audience analysis, which is so often overlooked, is excellent and will lead you to focus on the things that matter for your presentation. I especially liked the exercises suggested by the authors. Do them; you will learn more about your style of communication and your ability to connect with audiences than you had ever imagined. This book is probably most effective for newer presenters who need a foundation in the building blocks of assembling an effective presentation. But, it will also be instructional and valuable to check the effectiveness of more experienced presenters. Overall Loud and Clear is a concise, well-written recipe for effective presentations
