Synopsis

In less time than it takes to fly from LaGuardia to O'Hare, readers of Make Your Point! will know exactly what to do to speak clearly and concisely anyplace, anytime. This is a wise and witty book everyone in business should read. At the core of the book is a powerful tool called THE DIAMOND. This gem will give readers a simple way to instantly organize their thoughts so they'll always be able to convey exactly what they mean. THE DIAMOND format will work whether the reader has to give a formal presentation, talk on a conference call, leave an important voicemail or is caught in an impromptu "elevator conversation" with the boss. Most books written about communication skills tend to be hard-to-digest, wordy manuals. Make Your Point! stands above the rest because it's a quick read that's loaded with lots of user friendly ideas and numerous real-world anecdotes. If you need to improve your message or your delivery, this book is for you.

About this title

About the Author:

Collaborating on the book are Bob Elliott and Kevin Carroll representing over forty years of executive speech coaching for several of America's finest companies. Bob Elliott started his career with large corporations including Pfizer, Cigna and Westinghouse. Interested in looking at corporate life from the outside, he became a communications consultant in 1982. While Bob is proud of his relationship with companies like GE and MasterCard, at the drop of the hat he will bring up his work with Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer and other Revlon models. Kevin Carroll grew up in a large Irish Catholic family where, to the best of his recollection, he was somewhere near the middle. As one of seven, Kevin learned early on that if you don't make your point, somebody else will make it for you. In 1996, after 17 years in the advertising business, Kevin started his own consulting, speaking and training company. His client roster includes IBM, Merrill Lynch and Cisco Systems.
