Has helped me with communication in general
My reading list is currently longer than my arm and full of classic business books, but I can honestly say that I’m really glad I focused my time on reading this one. I am nervous about public speaking and find myself doing more of it, so I was excited to read Angie’s tips for being a compelling speaker. I got more than that from the book. What she taught me about intention will help me with every meeting I lead, every podcast conversation, and even important conversations with my family.
We have all had those moments that haunt us in the wee hours of the night: the times we could have spoken up and didn’t, and the times we spoke up and it went badly. It can feel like those experiences are inevitable, but communication coach Angie Flynn-McIver is here to share the time-tested three-part process she uses with her clients.
The communication scenarios we find ourselves in vary widely, but the process Flynn-McIver shares will apply no matter where you are: presenting a report to the C-suite, giving tough feedback to a colleague, or even negotiating a curfew with your teenager. Flynn-McIver and her team of coaches have honed this method over more than fifteen years of coaching thousands of clients in fields as varied as accounting, consulting, the ministry, education, politics, and the arts.
Before You Say Anything describes a new and innovative approach to connecting, creating results, and feeling confident about how you communicate. You’ll understand why you’re speaking, how to support your message with your body language and voice, and how to practice so that you’re ready for the big speech and the off-the-cuff opportunity.
This entertaining book gives you a speaking coach right in your pocket. Flynn-McIver’s light, warm style feels like she’s there cheering you on, offering timely advice on when, how, and why to speak up. The book is packed with stories, case studies, client examples, and direct suggestions on exactly how to improve your communication skills. No need to wait: you can test out each element of the process with specific exercises at the end of each chapter.
