Praise for The Power Presenter
‘‘Jerry is a coach like no other. If you need to give an important presentation,
buy this book. Now. The only thing at stake is your income, your influence,
and the success of your cause.’’
—Scott Cook
founder & chairman of the Executive Committee, Intuit, Inc.
‘‘Jerry Weissman’s genius is getting successful leaders like me to realize we are
imbeciles when it comes to effective communication that is not email. In
particular, Jerry broadens one’s perspective on how to use the visual well, how
to focus on the audience’s perspective and on how to keep the narrative strong
and compelling. I benefited from Jerry’s work way back in 1995 for my first
IPO, and then went back again in 2002 for my second IPO – in both cases his
teaching added tremendous clarity to our investor presentations. Not only
should IPO-bound CEOs read this book, but everyone who does presentations
should absorb its messages.’’
—Reed Hastings
founder, chairman, and CEO, Netflix, Inc.
‘‘If you’ve ever had butterflies when standing before an audience, this book is
for you. Jerry Weissman is one of the world’s experts in teaching people to
overcome their nerves, and his secret starts with something very natural—the
comfort we feel when having a conversation with one other person.’’
—Chip Heath
co-author, Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die
‘‘This book will help you bring out your natural charisma. It’s like a bottle of
turbo-charged personality. Take a swig, and you’ll kick butt.’’
—Guy Kawasaki
co-founder of Alltop.com, Author of Reality Check
‘‘I watched with my own eyes as Jerry Weissman created billions in stock
market value by teaching CEOs his speaking styles and strategies. Now it’s all
in a 250 page book—how cool is that?’’
—Andy Kessler
Bestselling author of Wall Street Meat and Running Money
‘‘As an executive communication coach, Jerry Weissman has taught me and
many others that great communication skills are not hereditary, but can be
learned. Jerry’s series of books makes his profound ideas accessible to every
169595376.028.png
reader. This book, The Power Presenter, is an excellent exposition into what
makes a great communicator, and how to become one, starting from the
inside. Using the very persuasion techniques it teaches, this book applies plain
language, fun examples, and convincing demonstrations to lead the reader to
absorb and internalize the concepts, and gain the skills and confidence to truly
become a power presenter.’’
—Kai-fu Lee
vice president, Google Inc.; president, Greater China
‘‘The Power Presenter captures the essence of Jerry’s in-person training,
including his approach, real world examples and story-telling strategies. It’s
a must read for anyone who needs to close a deal, market a product or drive
consensus.’’
—Mike Nash
corporate vice president, Windows Product Management,
Microsoft Corporation
‘‘Jerry’s insightful coaching helped us to launch a major new chip design
successfully. His new book, The Power Presenter, makes the invaluable
techniques he showed us at Intel available to everyone.’’
—David Perlmutter
executive vice president; general manager, Mobility
Group, Intel Corporation
‘‘Jerry has the uncanny ability to take the art of communicating and make it
feel like science-The Power Presenter is a prescriptive roadmap to communi-
cations confidence and excellence.’’
—Ron Ricci
vice president, Corporate Positioning, Cisco Systems
‘‘Customers determine business success, audiences determine presentation
success. Capture your audiences with The Power Presenter.’’
—Patricia Seybold
author of Outside Innovation, The Customer Revolution, and
