David Kwong has astounded corporate CEOs, TED talk audiences, and thousands of other hyper-rational people, making them see, believe, and even remember what he wants them to. Illusion is an ancient art that centers on control: commanding a room, building anticipation, and appearing to work wonders. Illusion works because the human brain is wired to fill the gap between seeing and believing.

How to read the room and understand the people and the situation instantly. Social awareness is not a given these days. But if you have it, it will seem like you have a superpower because of how perceptive you'll be. But the secret is that it's not hard. Get inside people's heads with a simple conversation or observation.

If your work requires you to be around people constantly, it can be hard and exhausting. It’s a challenge to know what to say. It can be difficult to keep a conversation going and a struggle to move beyond small talk to something more meaningful. All of it can leave you wondering how to make a true connection--which is the ultimate goal.

Communication expert and leadership coach Shawn Kent Hayashi has spent more than two decades studying how the things people say impact their business and professional lives. In her new book Conversations for Change: 12 Ways to Say It Right When It Matters Most, she not only identifies the 12 most important types of conversations people have, but shows readers how to reach their maximum potential by using these conversations effectively.

Have you ever heard yourself or someone else say: "Some of my best friends are...(Black, White, Asian, etc.)"? or "I don't think of you as...(Gay, Disabled, Jewish, etc.)"? or "I don't see color, I'm colorblind"? These statements and dozens like them can build a divide between us and the people we interact with. Though well-intended, they often widen the diversity gap sometimes causing irreparable harm personally and professionally.

Communication expert and popular speaker Quentin Schultze offers a practical, accessible, and inspiring guide to public speaking, showing readers how to serve their audiences with faith, skill, and virtue.

A complete public speaking textbook for Christian universities, it includes helpful sidebars, tips, and appendixes.

The reason human beings are the dominant animal on this planet is nothing to do with their strength or ability to fight. An elephant is stronger, a cheetah is faster but mankind's ability to communicate is second to none and the true secret to our success. We all have this 'god like' ability to communicate precisely what we want but some are more equal than others. It is no coincidence that the world's top salesmen, politicians and hypnotists all use very similar language.

If you’re like most of us, you openly admire and, maybe, secretly envy those who can stand fearlessly in front of a crowd and deliver an inspiring speech effortlessly. But what if you could be one of these chosen few? What if you could make your message clear and powerful and turn passive listeners into excited followers? Yes, you can do it even if you’re introverted. If you think that you’re “just not cut out for public speaking”, stop and think again. Don’t let your amazing ideas wither away unheard.

You won't walk away from this audiobook without increasing your knowledge on a variety of topics and fueling your success that you crave. Listen to it and improve your life today.

After all, life is a series of popularity contests. The choices other people make about you determine your health, wealth, and happiness. And decades of research prove that people choose who they like. They vote for them, they buy from them, they marry them, and they spend precious time with them. The good news is that you can arm yourself for the contest and win life’s battles for preference. How? By being likeable. T

Did you know that everything is negotiable? Unfortunately, most people are poor negotiators, and the number one reason why can be traced back to early childhood. This audio series can help you change that. Whether you are trying to influence or negotiate with your largest client, boss, spouse or even one of your children—you need to be skillful. Do you think it might help to be better at reading body language?

Anyone can be successful, but not everyone will be. It all depends on what you do. Are you wondering why you still haven’t achieved success after decades of working? You are asking yourself what others are doing right and what you’re doing wrong. What you do with your time matters more than you realize. It will bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be. But grinding and toiling for years will get you nowhere, not if your energies are focused on the wrong thing.
