‘Having the keys to communicate your ideas effectively will unlock huge opportunities. Problem is, great ideas often fail, not because of the idea itself, but because of how they’re communicated.

That’s exactly what presentation expert Andrea Pacini does in his terrific new book! He provides a wealth of valuable content, captures and holds our attention from start to finish, and inspires us to want to put these ideas into practice.

‘It’s an oddity of modern life that we admire others who are good public speakers, but we don’t put in the hard yards to be good ourselves. However, good public speaking is a very attainable gift: all you need is a bit of effort and some intelligent guidance. The effort must come from you, but the guidance can come from this remarkable book. Andrea Pacini understands how presenting works (and how it sometimes doesn’t) with real insight. Read it, study it, think about it and then enjoy the self-belief that comes with knowing how to present well.’ Roger Mavity, author of Life’s a Pitch, writer, business guru

‘Andrea Pacini is passionate about making people better presenters. In Confident Presenter, you feel that passion beginning on page one. What makes Pacini’s book particularly valuable are the many example presentations upon which he anchors his lessons. Even more important than the successful examples, are the failures. Lessons borne of failure leave deeper impressions. Pacini’s lessons are authentic – you can smell the blood.’ Michael Alley, author of The Craft of Scientific Presentations
