This book covers two models of public speaking - 4Ps Model and Monroe’s 5 Step Model. The 4Ps model consists of planning, preparation, presentation, and postmortem. The five-step model involves getting attention, establishing a need, satisfying it, and visualising a positive future action to get things done. The models are intuitively appealing, and are simple, systematic and logical, and a great help especially to those who are afraid of public speaking and setting out to get the skills to speak in public to persuade and influence others.
