Читать книгу The Leader Phrase Book: 3000+ Powerful Phrases That Put You In Command - Alain Patrick - Страница 4

Being thrust into an unpredictable situation can be extremely difficult, and this is doubly true when you are a leader. Regardless of whether you are an executive, a manager, a coach, a lawyer, a doctor, a politician, a salesperson, a diplomat, a den mother, or the head of a nation, you are expected to be able to take charge, influence the situation, settle the score, and make things better. This isn’t always easy, and it can be especially stressful if you are fumbling for words and/or lacking in nuance in your communications. The fact that you reached for this book means that you probably aren’t satisfied with the status quo. You know you can do better, but you need the magic phrases to help get you there. And because you are busy, you need a quick and easy guide to help you shine, both inside and outside of the office.

This book enumerates specific responses that have helped leaders and decision-makers like you shine. There is no other book out there like it. My goal in writing this book was to share these talking points so that you can develop a trustworthy, convincing leadership presence in any situation that life throws at you. In the past, rising executives used to spend time at seminars and conferences to gain the knowledge they needed to advance in their fields. The pace of business today has rendered this strategy largely out of date. The higher you move up the chain of command, the more readily you will need to be able to summon powerful and effective words and phrases – to motivate, to inspire, to command. Ideally they should become second nature, a part of your everyday routine. To help you do that, this book is organized into seven easy-to-digest sections, plus one bonus section at the end.

The fact is no matter how successful you are, chances are your speaking (and listening) skills could use some polishing and finetuning. This invaluable tool will enhance your command of the English language and allow your confidence and leadership skills to shine through. I can promise a rewarding experience, both personally and professionally, as you learn to speak boldly, persuasively, and, perhaps most of all, appropriately in any situation.

Let our journey to powerful communications begin!
