What do these goals have in common? They all directly and indirectly depend on a superior ability to present at work—and that’s precisely what communication experts Christine Clapp and Bjørn F. Stillion Southard help you achieve within the pages of Presenting at Work: A Guide to Public Speaking in Professional Contexts .
Created for busy, results-oriented professionals—from entry-level employees to experienced executives and everyone in between—Presenting at Work is deliberately light on theory, and loaded with actionable advice, real-world examples, and useful exercises that focus on the three key elements of workplace communication mastery:
How You Say It: learn how to rapidly transform nervousness into confidence, so that your message is polished and professional—whether you’re informally connecting with colleagues at a team meeting, or stepping up to the lectern at a high-profile event.
What You Say: discover a suite of useful tools to structure presentations so that your messages aren’t merely heard, but are deeply felt, accurately understood, easily remembered, and widely accepted.
Where You Say It: develop the skills you need to successfully manage various presentation situations that arise at work—from everyday meetings and briefings to profound, career-changing opportunities like job interviews and conference presentations that you’ve been missing or avoiding over the years.
Unlike generic, impractical, or just plain superficial public speaking books filled with stock photos of orators delivering formal addresses, Presenting at Work gives you the potent and practical tools, methods, and insights you need to master any workplace presentation scenario. It’s an essential resource that you’ll turn to often as you successfully advance forward on your career journey—faster, easier, and more enjoyably than you can imagine!

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Textbooks_Source, Columbia, Missouri, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
