President Ronald Reagan described Larry Tracy as “An extraordinarily effective speaker.” He was an Army colonel assigned to the State Department to debate controversial US foreign policy issues throughout the country.

He is now cited as one of the top presentation skills trainers/coaches in the country in publications such as the Information Please Business Almanac and Sourcebook, published by Houghton-Mifflin, Best of the Best, published by Insight Publishing, and What to Say When… You’re Dying on the Platform, published by McGraw-Hill.

Larry’s recently-published e-book Bring Home the Bacon: How to Deliver Persuasive Presentations That Get “Buy-in” From ANY Audience outlines his unique S3P3 System which he developed while debating those controversial policy issues in front of some of the most demanding, often hostile, audiences in the country.It was the feedback President Reagan received that resulted in his praise for Larry.
