Have you ever left a meeting wishing you had said something different? Maybe you wonder why speaking comes so easily to others?
Meghan Dotter has made a career of helping clients elevate their speaking and storytelling skills. In her book, The Reluctant Presenter: Forget Everything You Thought You Knew About Speaking, Meghan reveals the science and art behind creating and giving compelling presentations. She challenges the biggest assumptions you’ve been led to believe, including:
- Don’t fake it ’til you make it; use confidence as a guide.
- The success of your presentation has very little to do with Power Point.
- The real potential of storytelling goes beyond entertaining.
- Great speakers aren’t naturally charismatic-they do the work to connect to audiences.
Through stories and research, Meghan shows you how to do the work (and avoid steps that aren’t worth spending time on). In reading this book, you’ll do more than transcend from being a reluctant presenter. You might even enjoy speaking up.
