Conversation Power: Communication Skills for Business and Personal Success [ABRIDGED] [AUDIOBOOK]

Whether you're selling, persuading, advising or explaining, you spend most of your dayto-day life in verbal communication with others. The skills you bring to those exchanges will determine whether they go in your favor -- or leave you behind as others succeed. If you can't communicate your ideas or intentions, you can't expect others to understand them; on the other hand, the better you can make yourself understood, the higher your chances for climbing to the top.

Renowned communications expert James K. Van Fleet guides you through the most effective verbal communications strategies available today. Whatever the situation, your mastery of these basic communication skills can give you an instant powerful advantage.

Imagine yourself:

Striking up a conversation with anyone
Making lasting friendships from initial meetings
Negotiating the services you need from anyone
Enhancing crucial communications lines between employees, colleagues, vendors, and supervisors.

From business meetings to romantic encounters, artful communication can help make almost any situation go right. With Conversation Power, you'll be able to communicate your way to success!

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People [AUDIOBOOK]
by Stephen R. Covey (Author)

The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change was a groundbreaker when it was first published in 1990, and it continues to be a business bestseller with more than 10 million copies sold. Stephen Covey, an internationally respected leadership authority, realizes that true success encompasses a balance of personal and professional effectiveness, so this book is a manual for performing better in both arenas. His anecdotes are as frequently from family situations as from business challenges.

Before you can adopt the seven habits, you'll need to accomplish what Covey calls a "paradigm shift"--a change in perception and interpretation of how the world works. Covey takes you through this change, which affects how you perceive and act regarding productivity, time management, positive thinking, developing your "proactive muscles" (acting with initiative rather than reacting), and much more.

This isn't a quick-tips-start-tomorrow kind of book. The concepts are sometimes intricate, and you'll want to study this book, not skim it. When you finish, you'll probably have Post-it notes or hand-written annotations in every chapter, and you'll feel like you've taken a powerful seminar by Covey.
