The inexorable march of globalization in business has created a vast landscape of diverse workforces of diverse origins, all working together but speaking in a Babel of tongues. In their desire to communicate effectively, transplanted workers seek to learn the language of their adopted homes in classes and books, from computers, and online programs. These expatriates also seek to speak their newly acquired language more clearly, which has created a surge in a veteran niche industry called “Accent Reduction.”

By Phillip Khan-Panni, Toastmasters International
A very high proportion of business presentations fail because they tell the wrong story. They talk about what they do, not about the benefit they offer. We all need to know what makes us interesting; it is our Added Value. If you don’t know your own Added Value, you will probably say the wrong things about yourself or about your business.
Sadly, most Elevator Speeches fail for the very same reason.
