Acker, Mike2023
Book
Public speaking is a 'universal advantage' - a skill that gives you a leg up in nearly any profession or situation - and the single greatest requirement for great speaking is confidence. When you learn to communicate with confidence, it bleeds over into every area. Because this book utilises a holistic approach that addresses the entire person and not just exterior skills, your confidence on stage will follow you off stage.
