PART

II

Survival Tactics at the C-Level

In Part I you met the people at the top. Part II takes you inside the boardroom where you get a ringside seat as six mid-level managers make presentations to top-level executives only to get shot down because they lack the key skills to be successful.

After getting advice from senior-level people they’re given a second chance. Here is where the key learning happens. As you read about their successes, take note of the skills they learn from the executives. Those skills are the most practical and immediately useful takeaways from Speaking Up^®: Surviving Executive Presentations.
