Becoming Articulate, Well-Spoken, and Clear

By: Carol A Fleming PhD

Narrated by: Carol A Fleming PhD

Speak your mind effectively! The best, most direct way to convey your intelligence, expertise, professionalism, and personality to other people is through talking to them. But most people have no idea what they sound like. And even if they do, they don’t think they can change it.

It’s the Way You Say It is a thorough, nuts-and-bolts guide to becoming aware and taking control of how you communicate with others. Dr. Carol Fleming provides detailed advice and scores of exercises for:

• Understanding how others hear you
• Dealing with specific speech problems
• Varying your vocal patterns to make your speech more dynamic
• Using grammar and vocabulary to increase your clarity and impact
• Reinforcing your message with nonverbal cues
• Conquering stage fright

An entire section of the audiobook focuses on communication issues in the workplace - interviews, presentations, voice mail, and more. Dr. Fleming puts a human face on her advice through vivid before-and-after stories of 40 men and women who came to her for help...

"No other skills will position you ahead of your competition as much as good speaking and presentation skills. No book approaches the depth and breadth of Dr. Carol Fleming’s It’s the Way You Say It." (Patricia Fripp, CSP, CPAE, keynote speaker, executive speech coach, and president of Fripp & Associates)

Very good job Mrs. Fleming.

Where does It's the Way You Say It - Second Edition rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Probably somewhere in the middle b/c of the variety of subjects I listen to.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, it was.

I'm sorry. But this is the first of over 80 books

I chose the book to help me to be more comfortable speaking in public. the content seems to be good but ,try as I might, I can't get past the authors voice. I make about 10 minute tolerance before I'm too annoyed to listen. would love to hear this with someone else reading.

I love the author’s voice!

I found the authors voice so warm and comforting! An easy, helpful listen that I’ll return to in the future

This book is too wordy

This woman is long winded and she does not, in any way, help a person with speech. Less storytelling and more attention to actual lessons on speech correction. Also, the chapters are listed wrong within the audio and some of the chapter titles she references do not exist with the book
