In this age of information overload, no business skill is more essential than being able to connect with others quickly, whether in a one-on-one meeting or in front of thousands of people. Acclaimed speaker and consultant Terri Sjodin defines an elevator speech as a brief presentation that introduces a product, service, or idea.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 504
We often treat the word capacity as if it were a natural law of limitation. Unfortunately most of us are much more comfortable defining what we perceive as off limits rather than what's really possible. Could it be that many of us have failed to expand our potential because we have allowed what we perceive as capacity to define us? What if our limits are not really our limits?

Certain people move forward in their career while you seem to be stuck. If this describes you or someone you know, the problem is not the quality of what you have to offer.

It's only because they like me. I was in the right place at the right time. I just work harder than the others. I don't deserve this. It's just a matter of time before I am found out. Someone must have made a terrible mistake. If you are a working woman, chances are this internal monologue sounds all too familiar. And you're not alone. A shocking number of accomplished women in all career paths and at every level feel as though they are faking it - impostors in their own lives and careers.

Publisher's Summary
How to craft your elevator speech, floor by floor, with - NO SWEAT!
We've all been there: We're attending a networking event, social function, or seminar. The leader goes to the front of the group and announces, "Before we get started, let's go around the room and introduce ourselves. Stand up. Tell us who you are and what you do. Give us your 'Elevator Speech'." For many, the first reaction is, "YIKES!"

An interesting dissection of the elevator speech
A concise, but complete analysis that had me immediately pondering and redeveloping my elevator speech from the ground (floor) up. In case it helps other readers, I realized if been thinking of elevator speeches and elevator pitches as one and the same. In reality elevator speeches are mostly geared for effectively answering the frequent, "So, what do you do?" inquiry. Very practical and practicable advice.
