If you're a busy person and want some quick tips to improve the way you communicate, read on!
For the final conversation in my series celebrating 10 years in business, I was thrilled to speak with the fabulous Lee Warren, award-winning author of ‘The Busy Person’s Guide To Great Presenting’ and recipient of the UK’s highest accolade for public speaking ‘The Professional Speaking Award of Excellence’. A former sales director, professional magician and mind-reader, Lee now works with many of the world’s leading brands helping their teams to become more connected, more compelling, and more confident.
This interview is the shortest in the series, but every tip and technique Lee shares is easy to understand, easy to implement and will easily transform the way you present.

The single biggest mistake people make during presentation
