From Library Journal
Wilder, a veteran communications consultant and author of Talk Your Way to Success, arrives with her second book and an impressive list of clients, including Maria Shriver, Oprah Winfrey, and George Bush. Of the many titles available on public speaking, this is one of the better ones, offering concise, practical information. Since 45 percent of Americans are more afraid of public speaking than anything else, Wilder starts there, describing the five fears of public speaking. She then moves through the complications of vocalization and the need to get the audience involved. Some of the other subjects covered are creativity, persuasion, speaking with conviction, and preparation. Wilder even includes an emergency kitAan excellent outline for those without much time to prepare. The appendixes include a section on voice work, selected readings, and medical organizations for those truly traumatized by earlier life events. This title will be helpful to all and is recommended for public, academic, and health collections.ALisa S. Wise, Broome Cty. P.L., Binghamton, NY

In less competent hands, a lesson in the numerous components of good speaking would be overwhelming and impossible to comprehend, let alone implement. But this author, in a breezy and action-oriented class, covers all the major issues--the head work, the physiological pieces, and all the behavioral challenges that speakers have to master. Self-assessment and preparation are key, so you have to know what you're starting with for your audience to see you as genuine. The sections on expressing inner purpose and organizing content are priceless as Wilder walks you through the details with warmth and clarity. An essential resource whether you're overcoming hang-ups or striving for greatness.
