As a public speaker I enjoyed reading these stories and thought as I read them how I might use them in my presentations. Some I had heard before, but most I had not. If you need some sort of lesson to be learned sort of story, this little book has 99 of them.
I just love this book, definitely a must-have for individuals like me who want to improve their business storytelling, public speaking and conversation skills. Personally, when I deliver speeches, I like it to have an impact to my audience. I want it to be unforgettable, inspirational, influential or educational and the simple stories in this book can really help me achieve my goal. So before speaking in the public again, get a copy of this book first. You won’t regret it!
This book has really some good stories that are best for sharing during speeches or presentations. I'm in HR and I'm usually required to present in front of people and I can see myself using some of these stories as part of the program. The stories are very inspiring and people will really learn from them. I'm glad I came across this book. Good read/.
This a terrific (and inexpensive!) book of short and easily memorizable stories that help to open presentations and to drive home important points. The story about the empty boxes and the millions spent to solve the problem only to find blue-collar ability fixed it for 20 bucks is worth the price of admission. Glad I bought it!
This book is interesting, touching and inspiring. The stories are written in a conversational way so that they can be incorporated easily into business presentations, public speaking, and daily conversations. I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in improving presentation skills.
I would recommend this book for all to read. Brief stories that push you to think and leave you inspired. Look forward to another book of stories that shares insights like these. Thank you for compiling them Mr. Powell.
I think that this is one very helpful tool, which will improve my presentations. The stories are short and with powerful lessons. My favorite story is the "One million dollar mistake". We should always keep learning and never giving up - this is the only way to success.
I have attended quite a number of seminars, when the speakers starts talking about a dry subject, they will literally read the notes in their presentations, which was so boring! I did not come there to hear them read that when I can read it myself! I wished the speaker would explain why must I care to what they are saying, this book said what I was thinking during at the time. The stories in the book are short stories with moral in it. I wanted the author connect how the story integrate to the presentation, however I can think of my life story similar to the stories in this book, I can use my life story to make the listeners care to what I am talking about.
