Jerry Weissman: Founder & PresidentPast Role: CBS Entertainment, Staff Producer-Director, Public Affairs and News Programs
Mr. Jerry Weissman founded Power Presentations, Ltd. in 1988. One of his earliest efforts was the Cisco Systems IPO road show. Following its successful launch, Don Valentine, of Sequoia Capital and then chairman of Cisco's Board of Directors, attributed "at least two to three dollars" of the offering price to Jerry’s coaching. That
endorsement led to nearly 600 other IPO roadshow presentations that have raised hundreds of billions of dollars in the stock market.
Based on his experience as a producer at WCBS-TV in New York City, Jerry developed a unique methodology and comprehensive set of techniques to help speakers clear their minds by first organizing their content. Power Presentations, Ltd’s program coaches presenters to deliver their material as a series of conversations rather than performances.
Clients range from the not-for-profits to Fortune 500. Power Presentations, Ltd. has worked with the top brass at Yahoo!, Intel, Blue Coat Systems, Netflix, Cisco Systems, Microsoft and many others. We've also worked with the portfolio of Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Credit Suisse, and Merrill Lynch.
