If there's one lesson Oren Klaff has learned over decades of pitching, presenting, and closing long-shot, high-stakes deals, it's that people are sick of being marketed and sold to. Most of all, they hate being told what to think. The more you push them, the more they resist. What people love, however, is coming up with a great idea on their own, even if it's the idea you were guiding them to have all along. Often, the only way to get someone to sign is to make them feel like they're smarter than you.

Start with Why shows that the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world all think, act, and communicate the same way - and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with why.

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.

Used a full credit for one chapter. Would I've been nice to have known that this was an incomplete book. Audio reference slides but not available. Truly a marketing/sales ploy. If I could deliver a 0, I would.

I now know that having the images (I have not yet)
I am focusing on the audio and the specific emphasis and tone (stand-off to some, others happily embrace). Happy medium? Pre-knowledge assuming multiple offerings? Time concerns? of course. On a large scale? Ahh, allow learning engineer to dance through changes, what works, what doesn't. Business case met, and business opportunity displayed.

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.
