Everybody thinks that some people are born with the "gift of gab" and some people aren't. But the truth is there is no "gift of gab." People who are good at conversation just know a few simple skills that anyone can learn. This book will teach you those skills. With Conversationally Speaking, you will learn how to:

  • Ask the kind of questions that promote conversation
  • Interest people in what you have to say
  • Achieve deeper levels of understanding and intimacy
  • Handle criticism constructively
  • Overcome shyness and become more confident
  • Listen so others will be encouraged to talk to you

    • Find out why Toastmaster Magazine calls Conversationally Speaking "the classic how-to book in social communication" and why Dr. Aaron Beck, whose work has had a major influence on thousands of psychologists, calls it "of great value for people who want to sharpen their skills in interpersonal relations."
