According toΒ my GoodreadsΒ I again finished one book: βPitching Ideas: Make People Fall In Love With Your Ideasβ. Not only is it a very nice looking book, it also explains the principles and the process of pitching in a clear way. While mainly a book about pitching creative ideas in a business setting, the tips and techniques described are also perfectly applicable during job interviews or during those horrible “So, what is it you do?” type conversations at networking events. I highly recommend this book!
