There's no such thing as public speaking


The best speeches don't sound like speeches, and the best speakers make listeners feel as though they are being addressed directly. The trick is to make every presentation as natural and direct as a one-on-one conversation.

    An interesting book, if you can get past their irritating jargon of Presenter and Reactor rather than Speaker and Listener.

    Talk to the audience, not at the audience.
