Communication Skills: A Practical Guide to Improving Your Social Intelligence, Presentation, Persuasion and Public Speaking (Effective Communication: Master Social Skills & Build Strong Relationships) Paperback – July 11, 2015

This book has transformed the way I demonstrated my communication skills. It is a game changer with insights into non verbal cues that we can observe in others and apply to our relationships. It has also inspired me to adopt a more effective presentation style within my organization.

I was amazed by the way and the content of this book, it is certainly a guidance on what to consider, what to change, what to do . Love it I already listen to the book twice, and I think I’m going to listening again , a lot of good material

As a person looking to communicate better in a wider variety of situations, this book was a good read. It was jammed packed with information and references to research. I particularly found helpful- learning the filters people see reality through. It really explained how people can have the same data and come up with different conclusions PLUS what to do about it.- the difficult people chapter. This helped me see that I was actually encouraging other people's bad behavior by not being assertive enough, taking it to personally, or caving for peace.- the networking chapter. The tips for how to get in and out of conversations was great.The book also expelled a lot of myths about communication such as a person is lying if they look to your left and that you need to talk a lot to be liked. I have been reading the correlating sections of this book every time I have a social event and I have seen improvement. This book will definitely stay at my desk.

I really enjoy reading this book. I got great information from it and I'm already reading another one of your books. Thanks for being a great author.

The tips the author gave were okay. But I thought they were kind of manipulative to use on your working colleagues.The book could easily been reduced to about 50 pages.Putting on a happy face is obvious if you are a sincerely happy person. Wishing people a great day is also common curtesy.Delving into someone’s personal problems is not.Almost everyone wears some sort of mask for protection.I would strongly suggest, it is better to be an attentive, sincere listener, than to simply nod in agreement to work challenges.That way, you could bear the burdens of a difficult work environment, without regrets.Always be sincere with everyone.Your sincerity should reap great rewards, in your home life and hopefully someday, in your workplace.

Just finished the book and all in all it was a good read! Some of the chapters felt like review or “common sense”. BUT I found plenty of chapters to be incredibly insightful and practical. Something I look for in the books I read is how practical the teachings can be in our day to day lives. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of actionable advice given within this book. Finally, YES. Yes I would recommend this quick read to anyone and everyone. A few of the chapters I will even go back and review from time to time.

Since communication face to face is being a lost art due to social media. I wanted a book that would allow me to keep old school skills while also learning the new ones.

I love this book! My son (16) and I read this book. I recommend this book to anyone who cares about how they communicate! I was surprised at the multitude of aspects there are in how we effectively or not so effectively communicate. The book is excellently well written, very easy to read, incredibly educational as well as entertaining and quite funny a lot of the time! It’s a great book; one of my favorite books!
