BRENÉ BROWN
THE CALL TO COURAGE
NETFLIX
With humour and empathy, Brené Brown discusses what it takes to choose courage over comfort.

Vulnerability might lead to failure – or a career full of joy and love.
The most important skills that communicators and presenters use, in order to deliver a persuasive message – determined from 7 years of studying 5000 speakers, amateurs and professionals.

SUPERCOMMUNICATORS
Supercommunicators know the importance of recognising - and then matching - each kind of conversation, and how to hear the complex emotions, subtle negotiations, and deeply held beliefs that colour so much of what we say and how we listen.
In this book, you will learn why some people are able to make themselves heard, and to hear others, so clearly.
STEPHEN BAYLEY, ROGER MAVITY
LIFE'S A PITCH
Life's a Pitch tells you how to do it better. How to be best, first or at least, different. How to be noticed and how to get to 'yes'. How to become smarter, cleverer, sexier.

PRESENCE
By accessing our personal power, we can achieve 'presence', the state in which we stop worrying about the impression we're making on others and instead adjust the impression we've been making on ourselves.
