communication and body language is so important

This book starts off with a detailed explanation of the benefits to having good communication skills, such as being able to develop great relationships at work, with customers, in personal relationships and more. Then it gives you all the strategies needed, including how to effectively use body language, how to look charismatic in your communication with others, how to positively use persuasion in your communication, and other related topics.

If you're shy like me or simply have trouble communicating effectively, Mr. McCloud helps you through by teaching you how to become an engaging conversationalist through all of the tips covered in this audio book. I also feel that those in jobs in sales will find it especially helpful in persuading customers to buy their products and services.

Fantastic tool for overcoming anxiety and shyness

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely. Most of my friends have great ideas but are too shy or awkward to express them properly. With this book, they could finally learn how to properly express their talents.

What did you like best about this story?

The section about how to be likable is important, as being assertive and communicative without knowing how to get people to like you is pointless. That's when you go from being charismatic to being "loud" or "bossy".

Any additional comments?

If you struggle wish shyness or anxiety, or just want to make a good impression at your workplace, this book can help. I highly recommend it for everyone who has a job where you have to work with others.

Great Speaker and Succinct Delivery

The information was well organized and delivered in a succinct manner. No fluff. Very much on topic throughout and the content totally met my expectations. I especially like the references to the YouTube videos. Will listen to this many times.

Learn the Best Communication Skills

If you could sum up Communication Skills in three words, what would they be?

Concise, Interesting, and Helpful

What other book might you compare Communication Skills to and why?

Ace McCloud has so many self help books that can compare with communication skills. I would compare it to his Leadership book because communication is vital to being a leader and many of the concepts are similar in the books.

What does Joshua Mackey bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Joshua Mackey has a real talent for story telling. He can even bring a non-fiction book to life. His voice inflections keep everything interesting and bring out hidden points in the book that you might glance over if you were just reading it. His emphasis puts everything into view.

What insight do you think you’ll apply from Communication Skills?

There are many things that I will apply from this book, but the most interesting and useful for me is the use of body language. This part of the book helped me to understand what I was conveying with my body language and how to read others when communicating with them.

Any additional comments?

This book has excellent suggestions on how to communicate better in business, on the street and with your friends and family. It teaches you how to be charismatic, how to get what you want through communication, suggestions on body language and the best points of conversation.

Book info good. Narration is a challenge

I can't stand this narrator. Enough that I want to return all books narrated by him. Really hard to listen to.
