Reseñas de la Crítica

"This book is a breakthrough, a powerful tool for anyone who cares enough to give a speech or presentation." (Seth Godin, author of This Is Marketing)

truly unique and profound perspective

It's ironic to me, how alone I have felt in a crowd, when all eyes are on me. Through the lense of clown I have made sense of this loneliness as a lack of connection. In Wink you are given tools to transcend the chilling gaze of attention into the warm embrace of connection. Highly recommend.

Easy to consume and profoundly interesting book

Don Colliver, the author of Wink, delivered the audiobook in a perfectly clear, concise, and passionate way. This is an easy to consume and profoundly interesting book about Public Speaking. It’s only about 2h 23m, but it contains lots of practical ideas, interesting personal Clown stories, his actionable 5 P’s of Clown Presence that can be applied to public speaking. I particularly enjoyed the part about creating a pattern and then surprisingly breaking that pattern – a very unique perspective that I have never thought about before.
