Speech Intelligence. How to Speak to Influence and Win

The author of this book stuttered severely until the age of 30. It's hard to believe this if you listen to how he speaks now: clearly, confidently, without the slightest hesitation. Alexey Slobodyanyuk mastered the art of beautiful speech through... his own method of developing speech intelligence. It not only freed him from stuttering but also allowed him to make speech the foundation of his profession. Alexey has been leading a consulting agency for many years, trains managers at all levels, and is among the top 25 Russian business trainers according to the magazine "Corporate Universities." In his book, he explains what speech intelligence is, why some people have no problems with it from childhood, while others dream of speaking well all their lives. The author shares his own approach to developing speech skills and provides a lot of specific exercises. The book is suitable for people whose work is directly related to speaking – actors, teachers, announcers, – as well as for those who need to endure a public speaking challenge in the near future. For example, to pass an oral exam, present at a board meeting, or give a toast at an anniversary.
