Resonate: Present Visual Stories That Transform Audiences (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

This book is very useful in explaining how to craft a presentation that interests the audience and gets them to act upon your words. Not to mention that the layout of the book itself is fabulous. My favorite part of the book is the sprinkling of examinations of various famous presentations put on by people from all sorts of professions (politician, dancer, scientist, composer, conductor, business mogul, etc.). The book is an excellent presentation in and of itself. That's what convinces me that the author knows what she is talking about. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to build their presentation skills into prowess no matter what level they're starting from. This book does a fantastic job of analyzing what makes presentations work. It provides simple, clear guidance on how to make ideas easy for your audience to digest. Nancy Duarte uses vivid examples of what great presenters do:- Serve as a guide to the audience and help them experience new possibilities- Build interest through contrasts in content, emotion, and delivery- Create memorable moments- Provide a way for audience members to take action in a way that is meaningful to themA valuable read for all professionals that need to effectively influence and communicate with others (aka all).

Great for understanding the building blocks of an effective presentation from preparation to organization to delivery to visuals. There's no substitute for hard work, practice, and passion, but this will book will ensure that your efforts are maximized. Filled with practical ideas and examples that will make presenting your ideas not only more effective, but more enjoyable for you and your audience.
