Learned how much I misunderstood about what and why people say what they say. I dug up this book to transition from highly tech oriented person to better connect with people in my vocation. Using what I learned from this book in addition to communication podcasts, I am getting better day after day. I am sure this will go on for a long time with personal practice.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST READ! Very well written, clear, and perhaps one of the best books on this topic

As a professional salesperson of many years I know how important communication is for my career not to mention life, and I remember my beginnings when I was so bad at talking.... I had read so many books on the topic to become a better communicator, and all I can say is that after 100-200 books read I wish I had found this book a few years ago as it would have sped up that learning process.
I enjoy reading it, the style is great, the messages are clear and concise making this book is a delight, especially for fellow INTROVERTS out there!

A must read!!!

The book is written as a reminder of simple tools to help everyone improve their communication. No new information than the traditional approaches toward the topic of communication, but an easy to go to tool to check if you experience difficulties or challenges in communicating with others

4.0 out of 5 stars It will be better without numbering format errors
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2020
Content is organized well, easy to read and the last 4 chapters are very useful to control and adapt to a lot of situations. 4 stars rated because of numbering format errors.

Hope it will fix before publishing.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

4.0 out of 5 stars Readable, Actionable, Realistic
Reviewed in Germany on January 26, 2024

The very last page of this book requests a review, so here goes....

Overall, I found this book to be very readable. It contains a reasonable amount of actionable information that is presented in a logical and clear manner. I will be re-reading it several times and taking notes.

That said, the cover subtitle says "How to talk to anyone, connect effortlessly, develop charisma and become a people person". Oh please.... In my opinion it delivers on none of this. Actually, I question whether or not the author even approved of the subtitle, it is so cheesy and disconnected from the book.

The ridiculous subtitle aside, I consider this book to be a good investment and a welcome addition to my library.

Want to get over the fear of communicating with people effectively? Then this book is a must read... the author has made it really simple to understand the basics so well, that you just can’t fail if you implement them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent mixture of theory and hands-on tips to become a better communicator
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 6, 2020

It started slowly, but it became really powerful. If you are not too excited about the basics of communication, you can skip to chapter 2 but from that point it is a very interesting read.

I liked especially how the author shows how to deal with certain personality types like the naysayer, the complainer or the tank. He also explains the theory of communication very well and also the psychology behind it.

He also has some interesting info graphics in there. Overall an excellent mixture of theory and hands-on tips to become a better communicator.

And I loved some of the quotes in that book. I even took a screenshot of Larry King's quote in chapter 3.

1.0 out of 5 stars Elementary school book
Reviewed in Canada on December 28, 2020
Verified Purchase
The book is self-published and lacked an editor. There are editorial mistakes and grammatical mistakes throughout, such that it detracts from the flow. The writing is written to a child's reading comprehension level and in a rather colloquial, informal manner. The communication advise is basic and common sense, and at times offensive to a person's intellectual capacity (for example, pg. 29 speaks of "Physical Barriers" to communication and highlights that if your microphone is broken, your audience can't hear you, or if there is a cubicle wall between you and your co-worker, it would be easier to hear each other if you stood up and spoke over the wall). I am returning this book and would not recommend it. I am dumbfounded as to why it was rated so highly at the time of my purchase (4.6/5 stars out of 61 ratings).
