Book Description

Oct 1 2011
Fun, practical exercises and fascinating case studies will help readers maximize their communication skills 
 
Public speaking, communication, and presenting with power can all be terrifying prospects, even for those with experience, and cultivating a charismatic persona in one's working life is a priceless skill. This humorous and incisive guide demonstrates the right and wrong level of status to adopt for business life. While remaining fun, it shows the reader how to tap into their own personal charisma and communicate with maximum impact. A range of great communicators are presented for study, from historical figures to modern day greats. From Franklin D. Roosevelt through Steve Jobs to Joanna Lumley, this book looks at what makes them charismatic. Fun but practical exercises help readers to build communication skills and use body language effectively.

5.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Read, Good Advice Mar 3 2012
By rainie k - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
'Charisma-Get What the Greats Have Got' is an easy and interesting book to read. Even though the authors are British, they pepper their examples with plenty of American celebrities and historical figures, so the references are pertinent.

What I really liked about the book was that it contained practical advice for improving your own interpersonal skills. Anyone, regardless of their social skill level, will find a way to improve their ability to connect with others in both large and small settings.

The book is organized so you can easily go back and re-read the portions that are most applicable to your personality and communication areas you would like to improve, and their SSF method--Story, Status, and Focus, will wok for anyone on any level.

And in addition to telling you how to better your communication skills, the authors also discuss what NOT to do for effective communication. At times it's easier to spot your own bad habits while trying to establish new ones.

Overall, I felt the book was very helpful for me. Recommended!

It's like taking a class in college but having Churchill, Bill Clinton, and even Clint Eastwood as guest teachers. A fun read for people who want to get more out of life. Thank you, David and Mark!
