I really enjoyed this podcast! I’m anxiously awaiting her book about delivery. Question: What are your top 5 speeches/presentations past or present?
Love the podcast content (and I too am a fan of Garr Reynolds), and simplifying presentations always weighs on my mind (I have diteched slides completely more times than I count).
One nit, but as an old radio guy I have to say it: the audio glitches made it very difficult to get through.
I’m with Clarence & Doug … great podcast/content. I’m also a fan of Garr Reynolds and I’m going to look up Nick Morgan.
You may be interested in a book by Carmine Gallo called “The Presentation Secrets of Steve Jobs: How to Be Insanely Great in Front of Any Audience”. I read it after Presentation Zen and it was a complimentary read as I delve into learning how to make great presentations.
