Berrett-Koehler Speaking Up; Surviving Executive Presentations
Book SynopsisâœThere are two times when youâre alone in life: one is when you die, and the other is when you present to senior management.ââRick Wallace, CEO, KLA-TencorUnless you're lucky enough to be the CEO, you'll need to present your ideas to people up the chain to get anything doneâand those presentations can sometimes be brutal. Careers and projects can come unwound in a matter of minutes if the presenter doesn't know the rules at the top level. Tactics and techniques that work wonderfully with peers, subordinates, and immediate supervisors suddenly crumble in the tense meeting room with the "bigwigs." A psychologist by training, Gilbert offers revelatory insights into the minds of the men and women who make it to the topâcritical information if youâre going to understand what theyâre looking for from you. He keeps it simple by focusing on three key imperatives for "speaking up:" 1. know the people, 2. get to the point, and 3. improvise. Gilbert's research suggests that 67% of middle managers break one or more of these rules. Based on ten years of research and hundreds of interviews, Gilbert's book is unique in featuring extensive comments from C-level leaders explaining exactly what they want and donât want in a presentation, as well as mid-level managersâ stories of triumphs and tragedies and what they learned as a result. This is a must have book for surviving the high-stakes meeting.

Book SynopsisPeace dealings in Early Modern times resembled more business transactions than anything else, peopled by actors being influenced by their country's specific circumstances or sometimes by chance alone. The danger of misunderstandings, whether precipitated through false translations or false interpretations, was imminent in all such proccedings. But ignorance too played an active role in both the political and legal background of Early Modern times. This collection of articles is concerned with both the temporal and the thematic contexts of the phenomena of "misunderstanding" and "ignorance." It provides many insights into the architecture of premodern communication.
