Inspiring communication can make the difference between poor performance and exceptional results. This is why CEOs and HR professionals now believe that the ability to understand, motivate and inspire others is the characteristic that is most important when recruiting senior leaders. Many leaders wrongly perceive they have to become inspired orators if they are to inspire others. Wrong.

When you speak, whether on stage, in a meeting or on the telephone, do you command the room confidently and naturally? Are you seen as a true leader? Do you get the full respect you deserve and the results you want?If you're like most people, your response to most of these questions is, "No, but I want to!"

If you've ever been there, then this book is for you. Full of stories, examples, and exercises for you to try, Speaking to Influence helps you take the blinders off and see where you're getting in your own way so you can create strong, positive relationships, establish your best reputation, and achieve your greatest goals and purpose.
