This little book is a do-it-yourself speaking coach, mentor, and image consultant rolled into one!
Confident and effective communication is a skill every public speaker craves and every exceptional speaker continually hones.

Inside Backstage Pass for Presenters, Trainers, and Public Speakers you will find strategies to help you do just that, including:
Designing audience handouts and seating the audience
Maintaining group energy and timing group work
Working with angry and challenging audiences
Structuring breaks for more active audience participation
Quality closers that highlight session gains
Self-evaluation assessments that include feedback from colleagues
Lists of Q&A′s and Do′s and Don′ts
This practical yet humorous handbook demonstrates how to get your point across and win your audience-by zeroing in on the keys to successful communication, whether your goal is to bring a change in ideas, attitude, or performance from your audience.
