Tony Hallett, an experienced editor, publisher, trainer and advisor has fronted hundreds of live events. In this practical, often humorous how-to guide he demystifies what it takes to shine on stage – whether your stage is a broadcast news panel, an industry conference or just the front of a company meeting room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThroughout the book chapters are illustrated with anecdotes.
