Resumen del Editor

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them.

But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Join Dr. Allison Friederichs to discover how every single interaction we have is an opportunity to use clear and compelling communication tactics. However daunting or unpredictable the situation, we have the power to strategically choose how we communicate. Every single time. And how we communicate can change everything.

Over the course of 10 lessons, you will have fun exploring words—what they offer us, where they come from, what influences their meaning and vice versa, and how to expand your vocabulary. You’ll learn how to choose the right words for every scenario, and you’ll learn how those words can revolutionize your personal and professional life.

Veracity and Grace

Choosing right words with right manner is critical for effective communication in everyday life.

Pace

I enjoyed the content. The info was very good and useful, but the reader spoke too fast.

Interesting Concepts

The narrator’s voice was pleasant and the concepts were well explained. The vocabulary was rich and purposeful. The author provided good real-life examples to demonstrate how to use the concepts, which I consider helpful. Due to the title, I was expecting more examples of words to use or omit. Perhaps, I made an incorrect assumption regarding what to expect out of this audiobook. With that said, I found the material taught valuable and a good use of my commuting time.

It Does Have Some Value…

This book was not what I thought it would be, but it definitely has some value & is worth listening to. I plan on listening to it again. I would recommend to a friend, but I would do so with conditions.

Yes, I LOVED IT.
The author read the book with such a clear and pleasant voice I almost devoured it in one sitting.
I will listen again and again because it is filled with good advice and I didn't take notes.
The time flew by. Do yourself a favour and get this book.

Very helpful

I wish I could have this course, it is really helpful and inspiring, brings up the awareness during the daily conversation.

Fantastic communication guideline

This course was really informative and helpful. Would highly recommend it to increase your knowledge on how to communicate.

The only thing that maybe could add more value is if there was a pdf summary and practice sheets to embed the knowledge.
