Simply Said is the essential handbook for business communication. Do you ever feel as though your message hasn't gotten across? Do details get lost along the way?

This book presents an all-encompassing guide to improving your communication, based on the Exec|Comm philosophy: we are all better communicators when we focus less on ourselves and more on other people. More than just a list of tips, this book connects skills with scenarios and purpose to help you hear and be heard. You'll learn the skills to deliver great presentations and clear and persuasive messages, handle difficult conversations, effectively manage, lead with authenticity and more, as you discover the secrets of true communication.

Communication affects every interaction every day. Why not learn to do it well? This book provides comprehensive guidance toward getting your message across, and getting the results you want.

• Shift your focus from yourself to other people

This was a solid read that helped tie together a few different communication methods. Spoken word, presentations and even digital communications were covered here in a very comprehensive way. Lots of real world examples throughout the book.

Everyone who presents or is in a sales position should read this book!!

I have read several books on communication and I am always trying to better myself and learn. This book by far helped me the most and I’ve recommended it to several of my coworkers.
