In this invaluable guide, Stanford University lecturer and host of the #1 business podcast Think Fast, Talk Smart, Matt Abrahams, provides a six-point methodology to help you cut through the anxiety and find the right words – when it counts.
'Filled with practical, tactical advice, this book is indispensable' – Kim Scott, bestselling author of Radical Candor
Communication is crucial to success in life and business. However, it is not just big speeches that matter: it is also those critical, spur-of-the-moment situations for which we cannot prepare.
A prospective client asking unexpected questions during a sales pitch, a teacher singling you out for an answer during a class, a high-pressure meeting with senior executives at work, or even a heartwarming toast to deliver on the spot. All are fraught scenarios that might cause you to freeze up. The pandemic boosted this fear, by stripping the spontaneity from communication during lockdown, and then changing the communication landscape in the years since.
Matt Abrahams reveals the secrets to managing these stressful, impromptu circumstances to create and deliver crisp, compelling and calm communication. Think Faster, Talk Smarter is an energetic, engaging resource for anyone who wants to speak out, spread their ideas, and ultimately share their story.
'Exceptional' – Tony Faddell, inventor of the iPod, co-creator of the iPhone, and internationally bestselling author of Build
'An essential read' – Daniel H. Pink, bestselling author of Drive
Think Fast, Talk Smart was #1 on Apple Podcasts in the Careers genre, from 03.04.2023 - 05.04.2023 and later dates.
