		<description><![CDATA[The word ‘prop’ has something of an ambiguous connotation. It’s redolent of childhood plays and magic tricks, bunnies and cardboard cutouts. There aren’t many times in adulthood when our minds turn to the possibility of using props, unless you have some kind of job in theatre, but we should give it a moment of consideration when preparing [...]]]></description>

We’ve discussed various lessons that can be learned about presentation from the advertising industry, including advice from advertising guru David Oglivy and lessons from Mad Men’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rory Sutherland garners quite the laughs in his TEDxAthens talk ‘Perspective is Everything’. He opens his talk wonderfully with an anecdote that immediately grabs the audience’s attention while at the same time deftly demonstrates his main point. He shows us an electronic cigarette and muses that it has revolutionized his life ever since it became [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dale Carnegie’s How to Win Friends and Influence People is something of a cultural paradigm. Most everyone has heard of the bestselling self-help book, originally published in 1936, though many approach the book with an eyebrow arched and an ironic comment ready. Though the title is quaint and prone to induce skepticism, the book has [...]]]></description>

Are ideas born interesting or made interesting? Chip and Dan Heath discuss these compelling questions in their book Made to Stick.

		<description><![CDATA[If used correctly, analogies can greatly strengthen and nuance a presentation. Like most vague literary terms that we haven’t thought twice about since high school, it’s helpful to start with a definition: An analogy is a comparison between two things, typically on the basis of their structure and for the purpose of explanation or clarification.

It’s nasally, but not in an annoying, mouth-breathing way, and it’s almost meek sounding in a neighborly, affable way. Ira Glass has been the host and producer of Public Radio International’s “This American Life” since 1995. The program reaches over [...]]]></description>

Or maybe it’s refreshing to see a clear-cut, physical embodiment of those ambiguous entities: good and evil.
