It's almost like an elevator pitch. You have little time to present your idea, and above all, hardly any preparation time – everything has to happen quickly. The difference is that this time you're not trying to charm the CEO in an elevator. This time, you need to create an "aha" effect in a team meeting, a project meeting, with a client, or in a one-on-one conversation with your boss. You must be charming, effective, and substantive on the spot. Whether you have two hours or just two minutes to prepare, you need to deliver compelling data, facts, and arguments and present them confidently. Presentation and rhetoric expert Anita Hermann-Ruess shows in this book how you can design convincing ad-hoc presentations under time pressure, visualize them with simple tools, and leave a lasting impression.
