A MUST READ FOR SALES TRAINERS,
By
This review is from: How to Run Seminars and Workshops: Presentation Skills for Consultants, Trainers, and Teachers (Paperback)
From Joe Catal, author of the book "Telesales Tips From The Trenches".As a national sales trainer who teaches people how to sell by phone, this book is an incredible read. There's a huge difference in telling someone a sales technique and teaching that technique. The book covers every situataion you may encounter and answers it on a psychological and practical level. I consider myself a very good public speaker and my evaluations normally come back as excellent. After reading this book, I had to rate my seminar a C+. If you've been struggling with your training this book will be a Godsend for you. I'd like to personally thank the author for teaching me the right way to give a seminar. This is a must read, and I'd be shocked if you read this book and your seminar didn't improve 100%.

The BEST!!!,
This review is from: How to Run Seminars and Workshops: Presentation Skills for Consultants, Trainers, and Teachers, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
After receiving this book I read it straight through in 2 days. Absolutely the best information for any trainer. Robert does a tremendous job of detailing just about everything a trainer needs to know. I highly recommend this book. I also purchased 2 other books at the same time - I probably won't even read those now. Get it - you WILL enjoy it!

Best book for teachers EVER!,
By Mangala McNamara (Ann Arbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: How to Run Seminars and Workshops: Presentation Skills for Consultants, Trainers, and Teachers, 2nd Edition (Paperback)
I highly recommend this book to ANYONE who teaches, especially anyone who teaches adults.I wish I had read it before I was a Teaching Assitant (while a graduate student at a major university). TAs get very little help in learning to teach and yet do most of the teaching - EVERY TA should read this book. It will feature prominently in my X-mas gifts!
