      Book Presentation: Show and Tell by Dan Roam

      Summary of Show and Tell (Dan Roam)

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      There is nothing more important for achieving personal or professional success than being able to share your ideas in public. Yet despite that, most people are terrified about public speaking. That's unfortunate and it doesn't have to be that way.

      To give a great presentation, there are really just three rules you have to follow:

      Tell the truth

      Tell it with a story

      Tell it with pictures

      So how and why does this work?

      When you lead with the truth, your heart will always eventually follow.

      When you tell engaging stories, you take the listener on an unforgettable journey

      When you include pictures with your stories, you engage and captivate their minds.

      If I tell you the truth, I tell you with a story, and if I tell that story with pictures, I can keep you glued to your seat.
