Story
Most of us are quite relaxed and confident when we're with our friends and family. We can tell a story or even tell a joke. But put us on a platform and we can feel very different. When we speak to an audience, we often put on a public mask; and use a different voice. Why can't we seem to be ourselves when we give a talk? In this audiobook, we will look at all aspects of spoken communication, from structure right through to delivery. We will learn how to have a conversation with our audience - to be ourselves - so that we connect with them every time we speak.

Yes, you can do it even if you’re introverted. If you think that you’re “just not cut out for public speaking”, stop and think again. Don’t let your amazing ideas wither away unheard.

Many of us dread having to convey our ideas to others, often feeling ill-equipped, anxious, and awkward. Public speaking experts help by focusing on planned communication experiences such as slide presentations, pitches, or formal talks. Yet, most of our professional and personal communication occurs in spontaneous situations that creep up on us and all too often leave us flustered and stumbling for words. Stanford lecturer, podcast host, and communication expert Matt Abrahams provides tangible, actionable skills to help even the most anxious of speakers succeed when speaking spontaneously.

This book is comprehensive!
This is an excellent book on learning how to become a more effective public speaker. The book takes you through steps to become better and more confident. My favorite is the discussions on the practice using the power stance. This stance adds to your confidence and when practicing in front of a mirror, does wonders! From here you can also learn how to outline your speeches better. This is an excellent book.

As an adult, I have always been afraid of public speaking which is weird because I used to do it as a child all the time! I really liked this book because it broke down each faucet of public speaking to make it seem less stressful and more enjoyable without the anxiety. It tells you what to do, how to think, and where to go in your mind while you're speaking. I highly recommend for those who a scaredy cats like me!

Comprehensive advice that works
The strategies for overcoming anxiety, the focus on preparation, understanding your audience, and even the part on how to use your voice effectively started to make sense to me. My favorite chapter was the one on social anxiety and transforming fear into confidence. For the first time, I'm not trying to avoid speaking opportunities. I've led a few meetings at work that have gone really well. If you're like me, someone who used to lose sleep over speaking in front of an audience, this audiobook is for you!
