Report Writing for Business Review

Report Writing for Business
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this book to use as a guide for students who needed help with industrial-setting report writing. It was a bit more than they needed or could digest at the time. It certainly is a college level text! Since I couldn't easily use it in the work setting I had in mind, I kept it for myself and am glad I did.
I particularly have found useful the chapters on the physical preparation of reports, since those are applicable to workbooks, and books and articles as well. The material on research--using email surveys for example--was very helpful and interesting.
This is not Report Writing For Dummies! It can be intimidating at first thumb-through. But it is a comprehensive look at an extremely wide variety of writing and presentation situations in business. It would be very helpful for almost any supervisor or manager, or for authors, trainers and teachers.

Presentation Skills For Managers Review

Presentation Skills For Managers
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Presentation Skills for Managers by Jennifer and Mike Rotondo is the ideal book for busy presenters who need a thorough grounding in the art and science of presentation skills. The book is small but very complete, covering everything from planning to execution. Checklists and reviews at the end of each chapter keep you focused and organized.
I was very impressed with the wisdom of the two authors. This book doesn't gloss over its topic but rather provides very important information in a readable format. It starts by explaining how you should prepare from the outset and then explains the process of converting your research and outline into a PowerPoint presentation.
While this book does not cover PowerPoint in detail, it does explain the necessary steps for using PowerPoint to create a presentation. This combination of theory and practice is unique and very useful because the actual process involves both the conceptualization of the presentation's structure and the execution in PowerPoint. (Microsoft PowerPoint owns about 90% of the market for presentation software.) Clear steps for designing a presentation in terms of layout, consistency, and color guide you through the creation process.
Finally, Presentation Skills for Manager explains in detail how to deliver your great presentation, including a guide to dealing with questions, your own nervousness, technical disasters, and much more. After you read this book once, you'll refer to it again and again, whenever you need to create and deliver an important presentation. And hey, aren't all your presentations important?
