The best presenters understand that it only takes 7 seconds before their audiences realize whether or not they like them and it only takes 30 seconds before they realize whether or not they want to hear more. That's why it's important to open your speech with a bang and Carolyn has provided a fantastically effective roadmap for doing just that.” (From the Foreword by Craig Valentine, 1999 World Champion of Public Speaking)
