Publisher's Summary
This Element is an excerpt from Presenting to Win: The Art of Telling Your Story, Updated and Expanded Edition by Jerry Weissman, available in print and digital formats.
Master the right ways to use animations in business presentations-and avoid animation techniques that can kill your presentation! We've all been in the audiences of far too many presentations that unleash all the bells and whistles of the animation in PowerPoint with a frenetic, pyrotechnic display that challenges a Fourth of July celebration. This phenomenon is like putting a 14-year-old boy behind the wheel of a Ferrari Testarossa.

Is this a book? And worst narration ever
Can I get a refund? The whole point of an audio book is that it should make the contents easier to digest when narrated well. I'm sure this book contains some very useful information as it was recommended by a succesful speaker. However this narrator makes it so difficult to listen to that I gave up in the first chapter. Then I realised the whole book was the first chapter. What is up with that? Certainly not worth the £2.
Maybe I didn't pick well as I'm new to the Audible platform. A bad first experience paying for something. Even if it was dirt cheap.
