    About this ebook

    Written by Scribd Editors

    Public speaking is something most people will be called upon to do at some point, whether at work in a meeting, at a social gathering or at a church meeting. In An Essential Guide to Public Speaking, communications expert Quentin Schultze encourages readers to become servant speakers who faithfully serve their audiences as neighbors. His message is that as Christians, we are called to speak not only with effectiveness but in a way that honors God and embodies Christian virtue.

    The book also covers such practical communications topics as the importance of listening and the art of preparing and delivering well-crafted speeches, as well as providing a biblical perspective on public speaking.

    Schultze is a speaker, mentor, consultant, and professor of communication emeritus at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, Michigan. His books include Communicate like a True Leader, An Essential Guide to Interpersonal Communication, and An Essential Guide to Public Speaking.

    Filled with helpful tips and checklists to help you prepare yourself effectively, this is an important book for anyone who wishes to improve his or her public speaking skills.
