Summary "You're in your office and you glance at the calendar. A date seems to pop off the page and call to you, somewhat menacingly. "Remember me?" the day seems to say. "I'm the day when you have to give that 'motivational' speech." You swallow reflexively. Your heartbeat seems to increase. "Oh, did I forget that?" you think, "It's coming. Soon. And I don't know what to do.""--BOOK JACKET. "Hanoch McCarty describes this moment with great accuracy because he's faced these feelings and conquered them. Pointing out that ideas and facts alone do not motivate very effectively, in this book he offers a recipe for creating motivational speeches that connect with audiences, remaining in their hearts and minds."--BOOK JACKET
