Expert Praise for Advanced Presentations by Design "Advanced Presentations by Design is the best researched book on presentation design that I′ve ever had the privilege of reading. I recommend it for those of you who want the confidence of knowing how best to plan and design successful presentations." Gene Zelazny, author, Say It With Charts and Say It With Presentations "This book is essential for any executive who doesn′t have time to wade through sixty–page PowerPoint decks. You will want to make this book required reading for all your staff." Stew McHie, Global Brand Manager, ExxonMobil "Like much of what goes on inside organizations, those ubiquitous presentations have a look and feel based more on custom and what others do than on the evidence of what works best. In this practical and evidence–based book, Dr. Abela has outlined a set of principles that will make your presentations more memorable and persuasive." Jeffrey Pfeffer, Professor, Stanford Business School, and coauthor, Hard Facts, Dangerous Half–Truths, and Total Nonsense: Profiting from Evidence–Based Management The Author
