Pelo menos um terço das pessoas que conhecemos é de introvertidos. Eles preferem ouvir a falar. Trabalham melhor por conta própria do que em grupo, são inventivos e criativos, mas não gostam de se autopromover. Foram responsáveis por inúmeras contribuições fundamentais à sociedade, mas muitos de nós não sabemos disso por conta de um traço marcante de sua personalidade: eles são quietos. O poder dos quietos mostra como pessoas reservadas podem se tornar grandes líderes e ser bem-sucedidas por causa da introversão, e não apesar dela.

In today's connection economy, the most successful leaders inspire their people with purpose and meaning. Powerful corporate storytelling can mobilise people around an organisational objective in a way that a focus on market share never will.

Yet, while all stories can move people to take action, storytelling isn't a one size fits all.

You may not be afraid of heights or spiders, but making a speech in front of a large crowd - whether it’s a wedding party, an awards ceremony, or even doing a presentation in the office - is sure to get your heart pounding and your palms sweaty. But with Your Guide to Public Speaking in hand, there’s no need to fear public speaking a second longer.

The Greek philosopher Heraclitus is the one who is credited with saying "The only thing that is constant is change." In the world of giving speeches this is especially true. One does not just suddenly become a great speaker. Rather, what happens is that we start to give speeches and gradually over time we get better at doing it. However, we'll never get any better at speaking in public if we don't know how to change.

Each chapter guides you through a three-step process for replacing unconstructive habits with more effective responses.

Whether you’re speaking to five or five hundred, you can learn to do it with confidence and charisma. The best advice from some of the world’s most inspiring speakers is gathered right here. These powerful tips and techniques will help you develop winning material, mentally prepare for your presentation, and communicate a powerful message.
