FIVE STARS The Communication Secrets to Get From Good to Great

The author of a guide to effective TED speaking, Carmine Gallo narrates this broader discussion of communication with a flinty clarity that calls to mind the tone and assertive delivery of some early TV pitchmen. But he's more than that--he's a gifted writer and teacher who sounds engaged with his audience and who believes deeply in his ideas. Gallo argues that robots and artificial intelligence will displace many workers and require even greater communication skills from those who remain. Robots also can't empathize the way humans can, so, along with good ideas clearly articulated, connecting with an audience or constituency will be critical to persuading them. This exceptional audio offers many useful tips while it motivates listeners to make a difference in the world by improving the way they think, write, and speak.
