The Professional ACT: Acting Communication Technique

Polls bear out that on the top ten list of worst fears, death ranks seventh - but public speaking is number one!   For anyone who gives public presentations - actors, teachers, lawyers, and business executives - The Professional ACT teaches how to integrate the skills of professional actors into your presentations, improve your success, and communicate more effectively.  Drawing on 15 years of theater experience the author, Mary Stark, demonstrates how the latest advances in mind/body awareness technologies and modeling techniques can be used to create rapport with any audience.  She translates these techniques into everyday skills that business professionals can use to project a more confident, polished, and dynamic image.  The Professional ACT includes important information on:  
 

	How yoga and meditation can help you on stage;
	How body awareness technologies i.e. Rolfing and Alexander Technique contribute
	to physical freedom of expression;

	Exercises to warm up your voice before meeting your audience;
	Exercises to role-play and "try on" the behaviors that will enhance your presentation.

With the public's thirst for "news", you never know when a microphone will be shoved in your face for comment.  Millions of dollars can ride on the impression you give prospective customers or your bosses in a business presentation.  Porting yourself more professionally in a sales presentation can increase your percentage of closed sales.  Acting Communication Technique is your advantage in your personal and professional life.
