This book has a lot of great tips, but it is a long read but worth it.

I recieved some great guidance on speaking and learning how to look, act, and sound like a leader. It has helped me decide where I want to be concerning my education. Great Book!!!!

I wasn't moved by this book. It is now fairly dated discusses more about presentations then articulations.

I'd give this book five stars but I haven't put it into practice yet to test the correctness of the author's suggestions. One thing for sure is I've always told people word slides were the dumbest thing ever, yet everyone continues to use them and stand there...and talk... and point... and read...it's just so boring. So while very few people will listen to my advice not to use word slides hopefully they'll listen to Mr. Toogood and he'll save us all from hours of mind numbing boredom throughout our lives.

The word slides aren't the only good piece of advice. The whole book is a good read for anyone that needs to give presentations or speeches. It's a good reference book as well for those that rarely give presentations but tend to forget some basics things when the time comes to do so.
