Interview About Presentation Evaluation And Reviews With Communication Expert Jerry Weissman

July 22, 2011 - PRLog -- Thirty million presentations are given every day.  Presentation skills instructors and coaches are often asked to evaluate their clients' presentations.  The evaluation involves detailed assessment, critique, and analysis of the presentation and of the presenter's skills.  Rate Speeches estimates that over a million speech and presentation evaluations are produced every year by tens of thousands of public speaking and presentation skills instructors, coaches, and other professionals.  Yet, little is written about the process of presentation evaluations.

Communication expert and author, Jerry Weissman, offered indispensible insights and suggestions about evaluating presentations.  These include use of the "I" versus "you" as well as a five-question test for assessing the effectiveness of presentations.  His presentation assessment formulas are usable not only by coaches for client presentation evaluations, but also by presenters for self-evaluation of their own presentations.
