Recommendation

People suffer three great fears: flying, dying and public speaking. To help offset the latter, Bill McGowan, co-writing with Alisa Bowman, presents an entertaining, informative guide chock-full of practical advice for anyone seeking to communicate with greater relaxation and effect. He cites examples and practical advice based on his extensive experience helping people speak in their business and personal lives. This easy-to-read, original self-help manual is tailor-made for speakers who want to improve their oral communications skills in a variety of business and personal situations. getAbstract is all about improving communications, so we highly recommend this fresh approach to everyone who wants to overcome public speaking anxiety.

Take-Aways

  • People spend 70% to 80% of their waking hours using some form of communication.
  • Projecting confidence, having a good appearance and demonstrating exceptional communication abilities enhance your leadership skills.
  • Speeches should not exceed 18 minutes; otherwise, you’ll lose the audience’s attention.
