THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A MUST-READ INSIDER'S GUIDE TO CREATING UNFORGETTABLE SPEECHES AND PRESENTATIONS
"The most insightful book ever written on public speaking." - Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take and Originals
Done right, a talk can electrify a room and transform an audience's worldview; it can be more powerful than anything in written form. This invaluable guide explains how the miracle of powerful public speaking is achieved, and equips you to give it your best shot. There is no set formula, but there are tools that can empower any speaker.
Ted Talks shares the five key techniques to presentation success: Connection, Narration, Explanation, Persuasion and Revelation (plus the three to avoid). It answers the most frequently asked questions about giving a talk, from 'What should I wear?' to 'How do I handle my nerves?'.
Since taking over TED in 2001, Chris Anderson has worked with all the TED speakers who have inspired us the most, and here he shares insights from such favorites as Sir Ken Robinson, Salman Khan, Monica Lewinsky, and more - everything from how to craft your talk's content to how you can be most effective on stage.

Rezensionen / Stimmen
Is there a single recipe for a great speech? Of course not. But there are some essential ingredients, which the TED team sets out here with concision, verve and wit (which are also some of the ingredients). An inspiring, contemporary guide to the venerable arts of oratory. * Sir Ken Robinson * This is not just the most insightful book ever written on public speaking-it's also a brilliant, profound look at how to communicate. If you ever plan to utter a sound, this is a must-read. It gives me hope that words can actually change the world. Excellent; easily the best public speaking guide I have read. * Financial Times and author of THE UNDERCOVER ECONOMIST * For anyone who's got a story to tell, or an audience they want to engage - this book is a must-read * Forbes * Nobody in the world better understands the art and science of public speaking than Chris Anderson. He is the absolutely perfect person to have written this book, and it will be a gift to many. The TED Talk has reinvented the art of rhetoric for the 21st century - we now know that "ideas worth spreading" can indeed be spread far and wide, and with clarity and panache. Behind this revolution lies Chris Anderson, who had a vision that powerful ideas can improve the world and has developed a coherent philosophy and a set of guidelines for compelling communication. The TED Talk may well be the defining essay genre of our time: what the pamphlet was to the 18th-century, and the newspaper op-ed was to the twentieth. TED TALKS is a guidebook to this new language, written by the man who has made it a global force.
