Why read a book about speaking? In life, you’ll likely be asked to speak, perhaps to testify at a hearing, give a toast at your brother’s wedding, or deliver a report on Zoom. You may also be compelled to speak about something that matters to you, perhaps to request support for a cause you believe in or share a memory at a grandparent’s memorial. Whatever the situation, you’ll want to meet the moment with preparation, practice, and confidence. This book will help you do just that. Our goal is to help you develop your unique voice, use it confidently, and realize that your voice matters—to you, your friends and colleagues, and even to the world at large.
