I Hate Presentations! ...Transform the way you present with a fresh and powerful approach

By James Caplin
Published by Capstone, May 08

The aim of a new book by James Caplin, I Hate Presentations, is to help readers become better at preparing and doing presentations. However, there is a secondary aim - to be part of the process of ridding the world of poor presentations, so that we all have to suffer through fewer of them. The author's belief is that, once readers start doing really good presentations – ones that deliver – people will notice. They will benefit, personally and professionally, and others will begin to improve the way they do presentations too. That will help make us happier and speed the flow of information
in the business world.
