Sometimes, that promising lead turns out to be a bust. That first date doesn' t lead to a second. The sales pitch fails to land the client. But what if they could? What if you knew the steps to "set up" each conversation to increase the likelihood that you connect, engage and win? Welcome to Speak Easy.

Learn how to steer a conversation to connect with prospects; engage with partners, clients and colleagues; and win in business and in life. Find tips, techniques and best practices used by some of the world' s greatest communicators and leaders. Step inside, grab a stool, and learn something new.

" Shep Hyken, New York Times-bestselling author, The Amazement Revolution "From the very first story in the introduction to Speak Easy, I was hooked. This is a quick-witted, fun book that teaches you, step by step, how to be a master conversationalist.
