Hello,
Ok so I have the APM BoK and the Using PRINCE2 manual to get through so from that point of view I am set for the next few months.
The next thing I want to turn to along side this is getting myself set for a leader role (currently the assistant to the PM's). I would like someone to recommend a book the covers topic such as: assertiveness, attitude, chairing meetings, being put on the spot (performing a presentation for example).
I am not used to these activities and as such get nervous when faced with them (mainly standing up in front of peers with a presentation)
Thanks

Hi John,
TED is a nonprofit organisation whose mission is to promote "Ideas Worth Spreading". It started out in 1984 as a conference bringing together people from three worlds: technology, entertainment and design.
TED conferences happen a couple of times a year, where some of the world's most influential speaker discuss a range of ideas.
TED Talks began as an attempt to share what happens at the TED Conference with the world. Under the slogan "Ideas Worth Spreading," talks were released online and quickly attracted a large global audience.
TED stands for Technology, Entertainment and Design. There is a regular NPR: TED Radio Hour Podcast available from iTunes, which is a good listen.

Hi all,
I have heard about "How to deliver a TED talk?" and tried acquiring the book. Unfortunately, everywhere I tried to buy it, I was told it is out of stock. I ordered it from Amazon on October 22nd and was notified on December 20th that it is again out of stock!
If anyone can advise on how to get this book, I would greatly appreciate it.
Many thanks
