How to Communicate with Power, Diplomacy and Tact

Everyone can and should improve their communication skills. Effective Communication is essential for professional and personal success. If you feel that people don’t listen… don’t always “get” what you’re saying… don’t follow your instructions… or don’t take you seriously, then your communication and personal effectiveness may need some fine tuning – or perhaps even a complete overhaul.

The good news is, even if you aren’t a born communicator, you can learn to improve your communication skills. You can learn how to get rid yourself of both the verbal and nonverbal “weak links” that can lead to misunderstandings, mixed messages and unconscious blunders. Do you come across as too passive… or too pushy? Someone who is in the know… or a know-it-all? A leader… or a follower? It’s all in the way you communicate.

Here’ what you’ll learn:

2 things you must do to be effective in today’s workplace and get ahead
2 ways to overcome your fears and anchor your confidence so you can be effective

Leadership From Within

Order This Book Today!


Leadership From Within Over the years, I have developed two main themes for the keynotes, seminars, and workshops I give to organizations. One deals with the skills of making "power presentations." The other focuses on developing the qualities of leadership that I call "Leadership from Within."

While I had not thought about it consciously, the two always seemed connected. I have only recently begun to see why.

Leadership + Presentation Skills = Success
To make powerful presentations, you must be "connected" with your message. You have to know it inside out; feel it; live it; and express it with passion. The more intimately you know your topic and the more you believe in and want to share it with others, the more powerful you will be in presenting it. The same is true for leadership.

The most powerful leader is the one who leads "from within." Not by a set of texts or what they learned in business school. Those help. But the power that comes from purpose and experience, and the leadership that comes from vision, are qualities that reside within us.

Powerful leadership comes from knowing yourself. Power presentations come from expressing yourself effectively.

In Secrets of Power Presentations, I outlined the quintessentials of speaking and presenting. This book is about knowing what to communicate - by developing the leadership qualities you have inside.

 

Secrets of Power Marketing

Secrets of Power Marketing You cannot - not market. Everyone markets - the question is whether they do it well or poorly. I have heard some say "they do not market." They say that because they have a narrow definition of marketing.

Marketing is everything that you do - or don't do that says something about you.

"Wow", you say, "Everything?" Yes. How you answer the phone - or don't; where you are seen or not; how you great your customers or not; how often you contact your customers - or not; how well you dress - or not; how you show confidence - or not;.. Get the idea?

Secrets of Power Marketing explores five strategies. You can use all or one or few - what ever works for you.

The five strategies are:

  • Managing the power of Perceptions
  • Building and maintaining Relationships
  • Working with all forms of the Media
  • Leveraging the limited resources you have to get more
  • Employing Database marketing to get more from what you have and know

Well there you have it. To learn more you will need to buy, borrow or steal the book.
We recommend you buy your own copy - then mark it up with highlighter and post-it notes.

You will find it so full of useful tips, ideas and techniques.
Have fun and tell us about your new ideas!

Secrets of Power Presentations

Order This Book Today!



Secrets of Power Presentations If two equally educated and qualified people offer similar solutions to a problem...the one who knows how to present with power will always have a much better chance of having his/her ideas implemented.

This book is not a quick fix. Learning how to make Power PresentationsTM takes time. And you will still be nervous when speaking in front of others, just before you start. (Everyone is!) What it will do is give you the skills, and the confidence, to move past your fears and become a successful presenter.

     Secrets of Power Presentations does not need to be read from beginning to end. Feel free to use it like a reference manual - each chapter, part and subtitle is designed as a stand-alone module.

     For optimum results, however, you should read it at least three times from cover to cover. Use a pen or pencil to circle and underline the ideas which you think will improve your next presentation. Share these techniques with a co-worker or a friend. You will grow fastest when you get feedback from a person who also knows these secrets.

     If you to learn even more, I suggest you also read the Author's second book, Leadership From Within. The most powerful presenters are those who are moved "from within". Speakers who know their values, their vision and their passion, and take risks to communicate these with others.

Power Speech
Stunning Presentation Secrets

Secrets of Power Presentations (Audio) Q. What's the worst way to start of a presentation?
A. With a joke! Most truly funny canned jokes offend someone. And they waste time.

Peter Urs Bender's unorthodox audiotape recipe for power presentations is the best this reviewer has heard.

Prepare. Be sure you know at least 10 times more about your subject than you plan to say. Rehearse exhaustively, especially the opening and closing. Eighty-five speakers out of 100 open their speeches too fast. Practice rattling off your opening at high speed, in a loud voice, with superfast gestures, for 30 seconds. For the next 30 seconds, slow it down to a dead crawl, in a very soft voice. Do this a few times before your talk, and your tempo will be perfect.

While being introduced, build confidence: Smile and look around, at the audience and the speaker.

Charles DeGaulle said that silence is the ultimate weapon of power. In your speech, periodically look at the audience, never breaking eye contact, and saying nothing. It works.

This classic self help Audio cassette album has :
  • 8 lessons on "Power Presenting" (approx. 22 minutes ea.)
  • Includes 4-cassette tapes & 56-page work book
