Quick Overview

One of the most influential mainline pastors in America, Hamilton outlines vital principles for public speaking---clarifying your purpose; understanding your audience; doing your homework; creating good structure and flow; choosing inspiring illustrations; speaking on touchy subjects; never abusing your authority; and more.

The thought of speaking in public strikes fear in the hearts of many. But we are often called upon to speak, teach, preach, or make presentations in our work and personal lives. In Speaking Well, Adam Hamilton offers nineteen powerful tips and tactics that lead to excellent speaking in any setting.
