Motivating Your Audience: Speaking to the Heart (Part of the Essence of Public Speaking Series)

Rating:
Summary: Speaking As A Business
Review: The book is more about how to run the business of speaking for a living than about motivating your audience. The title and editorial review are extremely misleading. If you are the verge of making good money from speaking I recommend this book. If you are a cold person and you need help faking it till you make it this book may help. If you need to be reminded that being in business for your self, you are the only one that cares about the fine, but important details this book will help. Right now I am looking for books that help improve the first few dozen speeches. This is not one of the books I would recommend but I did read it from cover to cover. Who knows somebody might pay me to speak. If so I would re-read this book.
