Power Talk by Sarah Myers Mcginty

Communication is a constant challenge. This book demonstrates why words often fail us and how we fail words. Concise, clear, and designed to make quick improvements in when and how you're heard, POWER TALK gives a step-by-step plan for redesigning your communication style, showcasing how to use the right language to get ahead in every phase of your work. It's not just sounding like an expert (although it's good to know how to do that). Uncovering new ideas from colleagues, controlling the presentation of original thinking, claiming credit for your work, even how to deal with the habitual interruptor on your project all can make your role and reputation at work more significant.

Learn how to listen to yourself and hear how you come across to others

Find the right speech style for any workplace situation

Practice new verbal patterns before you use them

Use voice mail and email conversation to your advantage>

Always be heard--even in a crowd

If you find your ideas attributed to others, your performance reviews thin on details, your boss slow to notice your work, being conscious of your speech style and thoughtful about how to be heard can make the difference.
