Elevate

This revised and updated edition of Elevate shows leaders how to get great presentations from their teams without doing the work themselves. Most executives dread reviewing presentations. Their teams dread preparing them. Yet both sides want the same thing: a presentation that drives a quality discussion and fast decision, not a meeting that spawns more questions. The gap between what gets submitted and what senior decision-makers need is almost always a result of one thing: unclear thinking. Elevate shows you how to close that gap. You'll learn how to: - Lift the quality of thinking in your team's presentations without rewriting them yourself - Coach your people to work at the right level, so everyone adds more value - Iterate on substance, not surface, and get to a strong presentation in a fraction of the time The result: better decisions, shorter meetings, and a team that raises its game every time.
