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.

Although she repeated herself a few times, it was enjoyable. I learned a lot about not only the history of language but also, its propper use in the modern world.

An informative lecture.

Quotes: "One of the reasons Stephen King is a prolific horror writer is he relies on verbs to make you feel things, instead of adverbs to tell you how to feel."

My thoughts: Another audiobook I had to read before it expires from the Included catalog, which is odd to me for exclusives and originals, but it does happen. This was pretty good. It was like sitting in a classroom or conference. This is a series of lectures on how to communicate effectively by dissecting the use, evolution, and proper meanings of words and communication types.

Recommend to others?: I highly recommend this to people in leadership positions, including parents and teachers, as well as people in general, but I wouldn't pay much for it.

I enjoyed this book. I took some notes. I had to consider that others don’t communicate with the same levels and kinds of communication. This book help in that consideration. Thank you!!!
