John R. Hansen: I actually did a new year new me type of resolution where I wanted to become a person that has more meaningful conversations, as compared to just doing the small talk at parties. I came across this series and so far it has helped me grow so much in just a short amount of time. There are so many different levels of psychology represented in this book, it was almost overwhelming but there is no need to try to remember all of them. Just practice a handful and you'll be able to become way better at speaking.
I have committed this year to complete the entire series and now I am just finishing book 3. I highly recommend this book and series!

D. Hill: The book helped me think about the way I communicate in different situations. I would say there were many nuggets in the book that can be applied to help us become better communicators and influencers.
I would say it is worth the read.

Bryan CareyBryan Carey: Good communication is crucial. It is important in business and in life and it makes a tremendous difference when one is trying to persuade an audience and win them over to a specific point of view. A book that aims to help you speak at your most productive level is this book, How Highly Effective People Speak.
I have read countless books on speaking and for the most part, they present a standard formula: Maintain eye contact, refer to people by name when possible, make sure your voice can be heard, etc, etc. But this book goes much further. It shows how using specific techniques can win over an audience to degrees you never would have thought possible.
This book sets itself apart because it uses psychology. It shows how certain methods of speaking play to one’s psychological advantage, persuading people in ways that ordinary speaking techniques fail to do. A good example is storytelling. When you can attach a realistic sounding story to a message, especially if the story is one that will resonate with your listeners, you will be far more likely to persuade people to accept and adopt your position. Other ways to get a behavioral grip on your audience are through such means...

Y: Its structure is not well organized which makes it difficult to read. The advertising here and there also contributes to a very bad reading experience. Waste of money.

IGIG: I really enjoyed learning from this book. it's difficult to grasp everything in one read. I think it's better to read it and review the chapters after. I personally also took notes and underlined many of the important points. Makes it easier to recap on everything when looking back. Best to apply each example day by day. My favorite sections would be the halo effect as well as the part where they refer to the agent detection bias.
