Non Fiction - Business
You have become a master of your work and are starting to get noticed. Then your boss asks you to share your expertise with the entire company.
You think, "What an honor. I'm finally getting recognized." Then one heartbeat later, your thoughts are replaced by "Why in the world did I say yes. What was I thinking?!"
For thousands of years, we've handed down stories and taught the next generation about public speaking-while trying to solve the age-old riddle: How do I deliver a presentation when I have a fear of speaking?
The real truth: There is no such thing as a fear of speaking!
The reality here is:
We've fooled ourselves into thinking it's a fear that has us withholding our ideas, our voice, and our bravery. This book promises to crack open your panic-stricken mind, pull out the sticky junk, and wedge in a healthy dose of confidence and charm.
In this insightful and honest account, Sara Krisher, an international speaker, and a master-trained narrative coach doesn't hold back from telling it like it is. Instead, she offers hard-earned lessons in quick, ready-to-serve, and implement thought-provoking stories.
If you find it hard even to say your name when the pressure is on, you're not alone. "Confidence to Speak" reveals how to recalibrate the internal chaos scrambling your mind to create a focused, meaningful presentation you can deliver... and enjoy it!
