A clinical psychologist and writer/producer share secrets to overcoming presentation anxiety and crafting the perfect "award-winning" pitch-no matter what industry you work in! From impromptu elevator pitches to full-board presentations, sales and marketing professionals face an "audience" daily-often with make-or-break consequences.

With chapters that include Persuasion Boot Camp, The Pitch Panic Cycle, and Creating the Pitch II (The Sequel), you'll have a front-row seat in a master class on giving great performances for any audience, every time.
