Now everyone can learn to give powerful, on-target speeches that capture an audience's attention and drive home a message. The key is not just in the delivery techniques, but in tapping into the power of language. Prepared by an award-winning writer, this authoritative speech-writing guide covers every essential element of a great speech, including outlining and organizing, beginning with a bang, making use of action verbs and vivid nouns, and handling questions from the audience. Plus, the book includes excerpts from some of history's most memorable speeches--eloquent words to contemplate and emulate."

Book Synopsis The Lost Art of Reading by : David L. Ulin
Download or read book The Lost Art of Reading written by David L. Ulin and published by Sasquatch Books. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading is a revolutionary act, an act of engagement in a culture that wants us to disengage. In The Lost Art of Reading, David L. Ulin asks a number of timely questions - why is literature important? What does it offer, especially now? Blending commentary with memoir, Ulin addresses the importance of the simple act of reading in an increasingly digital culture. Reading a book, flipping through hard pages, or shuffling them on screen - it doesn't matter. The key is the act of reading, and it's seriousness and depth. Ulin emphasizes the importance of reflection and pause allowed by stopping to read a book, and the accompanying focus required to let the mind run free in a world that is not one's own. Are we willing to risk our collective interest in contemplation, nuanced thinking, and empathy? Far from preaching to the choir, The Lost Art of Reading is a call to arms, or rather, to pages.

Book Synopsis The Lost Art of Connecting: The Gather, Ask, Do Method for Building Meaningful Business Relationships by : Susan McPherson
Download or read book The Lost Art of Connecting: The Gather, Ask, Do Method for Building Meaningful Business Relationships written by Susan McPherson and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a Best Business Book of 2021 by Soundview Magazine Reclaim the power of genuine human connection Networking is often considered a necessary evil for all working professionals. With social media platforms like Linkedin, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook at our disposal, reaching potential investors or employers is much easier. Yet, these connections often feel transactional, agenda-driven, and dehumanizing, leaving professionals feeling burnt out and stressed out. Instead, we should connect on a human level and build authentic relationships beyond securing a new job or a new investor for your next big idea. To build real and meaningful networking contacts, we need to go back to basics, remembering that technology is a tool and more than just a means to an end. We need to tap into our humanity and learn to be more intentional and authentic. As a “serial connector” and communications expert, Susan McPherson has a lifetime of experience building genuine connections in and out of work. Her methodology is broken down into three simple steps: Gather: Instead of waiting for the perfect networking opportunity to come to you, think outside the box and create your own opportunity. Host your own dinner party, join a local meet-up group, or volunteer at your neighborhood food pantry. Ask: Instead of leading with our own rehearsed elevator pitches asking for help, ask to help, opening the door to share resources, experience, contacts, and perspectives that add diversity to your own vision. Do: Turn new connections into meaningful relationships by taking these newly formed relationships deeper. Follow through on the promises you made and keep in touch. Woven together with helpful tips and useful advice on making the most out of every step, this book draws on McPherson’s own experience as a renowned “serial connector,” as well as the real life success stories of friends and clients. Filled with humor, humility, and wisdom, The Lost Art of Connecting is the handbook we all need to foster personal and professional relationships that blur the lines between work and play—and enrich our lives in every way.

Download or read book The Power of Words A Compendium of Great Speeches from World Leaders written by LornaMarie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a treasure in the hands of anyone required to use oratory skill in their role. It is known in most countries of the world that lawyers are good orators, perhaps due to the nature of their profession, Barristers are known to address the court. Some of our world leaders past and present are great orators; it is, however, important to note that while not all of them were lawyers, they have delivered remarkable and memorable speeches to their respective nations. One of the qualities of a good leader is the ability to address the nation with good oratory skills. This book therefore explores the power and effect that words have on all of us.
Book Synopsis Media Relations Handbook for Government, Associations, Nonprofits, and Elected Officials, 2e by : Bradford Fitch
Download or read book Media Relations Handbook for Government, Associations, Nonprofits, and Elected Officials, 2e written by Bradford Fitch and published by The Capitol Net Inc. This book was released on with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human communication is a constant, continuous, and dynamic phenomenon. You cannot not-communicate nor can you un-communicate. For an individual entity, there is only ONE communication. Not multiple, not varieties, only one. That one communication is the culmination of all that has been communicated by the entity until the "now" in time. You cannot go back and un-communicate something. You can only begin from the "now" to create the intended outcome. That outcome is always a negotiation with the receiver/audience/community to cultivate an agreed understanding. For a communication professional, understanding this fact is essential. No matter where you work, someone has been communicating something before you began. You cannot un-communicate it. You cannot create a new beginning; but you can begin now to create a new outcome. Research continues into the changes in communication wrought by the Internet and public expectations that are experiencing mercurial change. As best practices are now being developed, the Media Relations Handbook 2e can give you guidance and ideas that will spark your innovation.

Book Synopsis Paradoxes in Education by : Rosemary Sage
Download or read book Paradoxes in Education written by Rosemary Sage and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world of 2017 is unrecognisable. In September, a robot, YuMi (with incredibly expressive nuances) will conduct a Tuscan orchestra while Andrea Bocelli sings Woman is Fickle (La donna è mobile) from Verdi’s Rigoletto. University students have invented a ‘rowbot’ which is faster than the Cambridge and Oxford boat crews in the annual regatta and they are challenging rivals to compete in a new hi-tech event: the Rowbot race. The Australians have developed Hadrian X which can lay 1000 bricks an hour – a task that would take two humans a day or two. De Laval International’s cow-milking robot is being deployed in America to challenge the humans! All routine jobs will soon be carried out by robotic machines. This situation is depressing students who are striving to find jobs and feeling overwhelmed by the enormity of life. Education promotes compliant rather than creative learners, employing out-dated teaching models, which aimed to prepare pupils for routine work in factories and other places. Today, these mundane tasks are being taken over by artificial intelligence, so greater attention to learning needs and personal development is required for higher-level work, to be ahead of our new robot rivals! Students must acquire excellent abilities to communicate, collaborate and create, for coping with a rapidly changing, challenging, complex world. This book is the output of the first UK Doctorates by Professional Record, who have studied present society needs, formulating and implementing new ideas into their practice, to make learning more holistic, relevant and fun! Their suggestions encourage us to reflect, review and refine our present, outdated systems and produce a blue-print for a brave new world. Stories will make you smile at successes and wince at the failures. Sharing experiences, supports, energises and expands learning. The authors hope that students will not leave school hanging on the negatives but will in future be swinging with the positives, that a radical new approach to learning brings for them. Chapters in this book are contributed by: Jonathan Adeniji, Max Coates, Richard Davies, Rob Loe, Pauline Lovelock, Riccarda Matteucci, Elizabeth Negus, Kim Orton, Luke Sage, Rosemary Sage, and Sera Shortland.
