Author Chat

Our Author Chats bring the books on our Featured Book List to life through one-hour, moderator-led conversations with authors shaping the presentation profession. These sessions invite our book club community into thoughtful discussions around presentation design, data visualization, public speaking, and virtual communication—creating space to explore ideas more deeply and ask questions directly of the authors themselves. Each featured title is part of our curated gateway to mastering impactful presentations, bringing together trusted insights from authors and Presentation Guild members committed to elevating the craft.

We have over 13 hours of author conversations recorded. Each Author Chat has the key takeaways from the conversation listed.

Author Chats are a members-only resource.
