Witt offers a highly original--and persuasive--look at how successful leadership and the ability to speak effectively are intertwined. Through both contemporary and historical examples, the author provides practical advice on how his readers can take their game to another level.

This book is a delicate marriage of sales and persuasion psychology, media creation skills, and highly flexible public speaking techniques. The synthesis of these three components offers a uniquely new perspective on sales success. In days past, selling was mostly a matter of building relationships, fostering trust, understanding other people's perspectives, and waxing eloquent with words. Now another factor cries out for attention: technology. We must learn to use modern media in ways that show people what we mean, demonstrate what customers can gain, model what is possible, and visually distinguish ourselves from competitors. Our computer-enhanced communication must be effortless, as graphical ideas flow to customers with the same grace and speed as words rolling off the tongue. This book's hands-on instructions walk readers through the process of mastering such visual fluency as they build and learn to use a flexible, PowerPoint-based sales presentation platform.

Boring Meetings Suck is entertaining and educational due to its satirical look at the flawed model of business meetings, and its common sense solutions to these flaws. Boring Meetings Suck puts the reader inside their last project, team, sales or status meeting, recreating the painfully boring experience they may have had and allowing them to laugh out loud at just how accurately the situations in the book are portrayed. Boring Meetings Suck also outlines what readers can do to personally improve meetings through the use of the authors' MSRDs (Meeting Suckification Reduction Devices.) An indispensable resource for anyone who has to plan, conduct, present or sit through a meeting on any subject. (also makes a find gift to slip under the door of that person who represents the very title of the book) Boring Meetings Suck will prove of equal value to both the successful executive and the suburban soccer mom.
