[sub]How to find the right speaking coach for you

[body]

Sure, you're a good presenter. Who would doubt it? After all, you didn't become vice-president by resting on your laurels, did you? But have you ever wondered whether you could be even better - if you could make them laugh more, buy more, listen more intently, respect you more or shower you with even louder applause?

Perfect practice

"If only I'd had more time to practice," goes the common post-presentation lament. But, as Dave Zielinski reports, the difference between a mediocre presentation and a memorable one is more a function of how you practice, not how much.

If you're like many presenters, the end of a presentation signals the start of your brilliant hindsight. If only I hadn't stumbled over that key phrase. If only I had handled that question a bit more deftly or found more compelling data to support my message. And of course, one of the most common post-presentation laments, if only I'd had more time to practice.

The truth is, no amount of preparation time is enough. Allot one month to develop and practice for a big presentation and in the post-mortem, you wish it would have been two.

Chances are you can relate to this hopeful scenario.
