Dianna Booher's The Voice of Authority

 

Convey Your Message
Clearly, Credibly,
and Competently!

Ten Simple Strategies Can Change the Way You Communicate Forever

 
 
Would you like to compel others to act? Command more attention for your ideas? Encourage rather than demoralize others?  Communicate as a respected leader?   Following Dianna Booher's 10 essential strategies of communication, you'll be able to...
  • Identify exactly what to say and how to say it
  • Create compelling conversations that influence others to act
  • Connect with people to increase trust and cooperation
  • Facilitate understanding in complex or sensitive situations
  • Encourage information sharing rather than information hoarding
  • Build morale, improve team chemistry, and include others
  • Increase your credibility and impact when speaking before a group
  • Coach others to improve their performance from substandard to stellar
Effective communication can be the most important asset on your balance sheet. The difference between providing information and communicating a meaningful message can be as different as lighting a match and building a bonfire. 
Be Complete. Be Consistent. Be Concerned. These rules—and the seven others Booher outlines in this book—sound simple enough.  But these essentials of good communication mark the difference between failure and success for any business, career, or relationship. Even if your communication technology changes—from e-mail and voice mail to teleconferencing and blogging—the rules remain the same. You have to be credible as a communicator.
Fortune 500 consultant Dianna Booher is one of the world’s foremost authorities on business communication. She’s trained and consulted some of the top executives in the leading companies—and she has heard all the grumbling between departments about “the lack of communication” today. Using 10 clear-cut strategies, she will show you exactly what to say, how to say it, when to say it, and even how to present yourself credibly—all crucial elements in business today. 
The Voice of Authority is loaded with practical tips to help you
  • Sell your ideas and expand your influence
  • Inspire and motivate others to be part of a winning team
  • Handle crises in a way that builds rather than destroys trust
  • Identify critical characteristics that increase your credibility

One by one, Booher tackles the basic challenges of communication and offers real strategies for getting through to people. From the most routine messages to more sensitive “bad news” subjects and situations, you’ll be able to manage reactions, communicate with clout, and lead others with success.

Dianna Booher is the CEO of Booher Consultants, a communication training firm whose clients have included 22 of the 50 largest corporations in America.

From Jeffrey Gitomer’s Sales Moves Column (August 2007): "Plain talk makes sales; fancy talk makes you sound lame"

"In the past fifteen years I have only reviewed a handful of books in this forum. This book ROCKS! I recommend you invest in The Voice of Authority. Your words speak as loud as your actions—in spite of clichés to the contrary.  These strategies are so transferable
to salespeople it’s scary."
