Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Enhancing Your Presentation Skills
Till Kahrs · 2000
66/100
👎 Skip It
Till Kahrs's Fortune 500 training pedigree is a real credential and the step-by-step structure covering everything from eye contact to media handling is genuinely comprehensive for its time. The 'classic' label from at least one reader suggests the fundamentals still hold. But a 2000 business communication guide predates virtual presenting, slide software like modern PowerPoint, and video-first communication contexts that have remade professional speaking — meaning a meaningful chunk of the tactical advice will feel like a period piece. Worth reading as a foundation if sourced cheaply, but not a first-choice buy when more current options exist.
