We live in a world that’s obsessed with talent. We celebrate gifted students in school, natural athletes in sports, and child prodigies in music. But admiring people who start out with innate advantages leads us to overlook the distance we ourselves can travel. We underestimate the range of skills that we can learn and how good we can become. We can all improve at improving. And when opportunity doesn’t knock, there are ways to build a door.

Story
In Joel's Schwartzberg's 10-plus years as a strategic communications trainer, the biggest obstacle he's come across - one that connects directly to nervousness, stammering, rambling, and epic fail - is that most speakers and writers don't have a point. They typically have just a title, a theme, a topic, an idea, an assertion, a catchphrase, or even something much less. This book shows you how to identify your point, leverage it, stick to it, and sell it and how to train others to identify and successfully make their own points.

Good, but for beginners
I thought the author touched on some good points, and that this will definitely be helpful for be facilitators. However, as a seasoned facilitator, I was a bit disappointed. I was going to gain some more things to add to my toolkit, but only left with the basics that most veteran facilitators know. I would recommend this to be facilitators and to those thinking about transitioning to a role that requires facilitation.

This book is an excellent and comprehensive overview of every detail one needs to master in order to deliver high quality & impactful presentations. The author is also delightful in her spoken delivery of the information, as she “walks the walk” to deliver the audio version with as much personality as she writes. The book is insightful as well as entertaining!
