- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Extremely helpful and timely. Wish I’d found this a decade ago!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Great ideas, nicely presented. Able to utilize in classes and presentations.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I knew Steve Jobs was connected with the APple, a good tech brand, but didn’t know why he was that famous. I saw his talk, it was simple, entertained and not that long. This books reveals the points of what made his presentations that good. I like them and sure will use them in my next presentation or talk.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I got a lot of good tips from this book, which will come in handy since I recently rejoined Toastmasters! Steve Jobs was a master presenter, that's for sure. RIP.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very insightful telling of skills and principles of presentations, if not the character of Stephen Jobs himself. Any presenter or teacher can never acquire too much from quality authors such as Gallo.
