Synopsis

For the first 30 seconds that you speak, people are assessing your voice rather than hearing what you say. They are trying to see how your voice aligns with how you look and how you present yourself. The impact of your voice on your listeners is equally important to your success, if not more, than the clothes you wear and the words you speak. Many people fail in their communication simply because the inflections, pitch or speed of their words don't align with their message. If you need to negotiate in your work, you need to have a speech pattern that supports negotiation. If you want others to trust you, you have to sound trustworthy. Your pitch, speed of delivery, and intensity of sound can imply such things as friendliness or hostility, tolerance or prejudice, and weakness or strength. The good news is you have the power to align your voice with your image. You can choose to have your voice more fully support your sense of who you are and what you want to do with your life, and you can have a healthy, vibrant sound. This book is full of ideas, tools, techniques and exercises that can help you. Written as a primer for the uninitiated, with exercises and pages to record observations, Can You Hear Me Now: Harnessing the power of your vocal impact in 31 days, is a program to help you, the reader, create the voice you want. It focuses on both the physical and metaphorical voice. There is a chapter on intention as it is revealed in the voice, showing that clarity of intention creates trust while lack of intentional clarity can sabotage your communication. The chapter on how the voice works gives exercises to develop a strong speaking voice, and the chapter on vocal image takes the reader on an exploration of their vocal creation. Using the basic understanding that awareness is the key to change, the book serves as a guide to developing communication that gets you what you want. Can You Hear Me Now? will put the astounding power of vocal impact to work for you. This is the definitive source for insights and practical exercises to help you use your voice to close more deals, get a promotion, and have better relationships. Created by professional voice coach, Kate Peters, this effective 31-day program will change how you communicate for the better...forever. “Can You Hear Me Now?” is a wonderful tool whether you are in the business world, concerned about your relationships, or even a kindergarten teacher. Your voice is your initial outreach to those around you…you want it to be representative of who you really are. I recommend this book to anyone seeking to positively speak his or her mind and be heard." Rating: Excellent Heather Froeschl, Bookreview.com
