Get The Ten Secrets to Magnetic Confidence Feel Great and Attract Others Every Time You Speak!

Speak with real confidence (and discover the scientific research that proves it’s possible). Dear Friend, There you are. Butterflies swarming in your stomach. Palms sweating. Nervous system on overdrive. They’re looking at you. Waiting. Waiting… …for you to inspire, to inform, to entertain. Quickly, you scan the room to connect with your audience. Blank faces, all of them. Wonder what they’re thinking. Doesn’t look good. Are you standing incorrectly? Maybe you’re not appearing passionate enough. Wait. Stop. Just focus on the presentation and... …take a deep breath. Okay, here it is…the first joke. You nailed it. Proud of your delivery, you let it linger for a second, waiting to hear laughter erupt all over the room. Silence… except for a few coughs. You get a couple smiles—but you know they’re out of guilt, not genuine amusement. Sigh… “If only I could become a confident speaker,” you think to yourself. “Then my career would really take off.” If only? We used to think that way, too. No, really. We did. You see, everyone’s afraid of speaking. Everyone? Yes, everyone. In fact, when we think about public speaking, most of us experience so much fear, panic, and dread that… …we would rather die than have to speak in public. We’re sure you’ve heard that statement before. Maybe even in promotions for other books on speaking. But it’s worth repeating here. Why? Because, as we’re about to show you, in our new book—called The Confident Speaker—we’ve uncovered an entirely different approach to understanding the secrets to remarkable public speaking. An approach based on… …hard scientific evidence on the psychology of confidence. We knew had hit on something significant when we wrote it. But it’s not just us—many of today’s top experts agree that this is breakthrough work too: Your ability to speak confidently on your feet will impress more people and open more doors than you can imagine. ‘The Confident Speaker’ shows you how." Brian Tracy - Author - The Psychology of Selling Eureka! This book is exactly what every beginning speaker needs, and every advanced speaker will want because it is packed with simple, enjoyable, workable ways to overcome speaking fear and project a strong persona to every audience member. Bravo!” Dottie Walters CSP, Author of best-selling book Speak and Grow Rich You see, we’ve actually looked into why people fear speaking more than death—and how they can change their psychological and physiological state, over and over again, to become incredibly confident speakers. But perhaps we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Before we go into the details, you’re probably wondering… …why should you trust us? Great question. Let’s get to know each other, shall we? My name is Harrison Monarth. For the past 18 years I’ve trained business executives, politicians, and other world leaders in how to communicate with confidence and power, and my coauthor brings a unique perspective to the table… My name is Dr. Larina Kase and my passion is helping people communicate and perform at their best. I learned the cutting edge research data on speaking anxiety while working at the renowned Center for Treatment and Study of Anxiety of The University of Pennsylvania—and I’m thrilled to now share those strategies with you. We wrote The Confident Speaker to help everyday people work within their strengths to become expressions of extraordinary confidence. And we know it will dramatically improve the careers—and lives—of those who apply its advice. World-famous psychologist Kevin Hogan agrees (quite emphatically, we might add): I've trained some of the finest speakers in the world. This book will make that process a lot easier in the future. ‘The Confident Speaker’ is the single finest book I've ever read on the subject. Even for those of us who do this for a living, there are a lot more than just a few gems here. This book is packed solid and will soon be acknowledged as the authority and go-to book in the field.” Kevin Hogan, Psy.D, Author of Science of Influence, and The Psychology of Persuasion Like Kevin, we know that becoming a confident speaker is possible.

Coaching

If you have read our book The Confident Speaker and find yourself wanting more, we have designed specific coaching programs that will expedite your learning process. (If you haven’t read the book yet, we suggest you do so as it will jumpstart the process of coaching. You can get the book here)

We have studied and developed patterns of communication success in VIPs, Senior Executives, high-level professionals and other top achievers, honing our clients’ communication skills to ultimate levels by utilizing high-impact coaching methods.

In decades of combined experience we have learned the secrets to high-impact communication and the reduction of speaking anxiety and uncovered the most effective ways for individuals to learn these crucial skills.

Our Coaching Programs

Our clients excel in the following core communication competencies—Choose which you’d like to have yourself:

Reduced anxiety and fear: Success involves taking risks. To take risks requires low levels of anxiety and high levels of confidence. Our clients learn state-of-the-art evidence-based techniques for overcoming fear.

Conversation skills: Develop incredible conversational abilities so that you are able to start and sustain engaging and intriguing conversations. Present yourself as charismatic, interesting, and intelligent so others are drawn towards speaking with you.

Conflict resolution: Resolving disagreements is critical to productive relationships in all circumstances. Research on couples shows that one of the primary factors determining whether couples stay together is their ability to resolve conflicts. Learn how to disagree in the way that will make you closer, stronger, or more effective.

Networking skills: Putting yourself into the right situations to meet the right people is crucial. We will help you identify what these situations are and to expand your repertoire of skills for “working the room”, meeting, and developing key relationships.

Nonverbal communication: Physical appearance and behaviors speak volumes. So does your vocal tonality. Let’s face it, attraction is important in relationships. Nonverbal communication is what attracts one person to another. We want you to present yourself as attractively as possible, carry yourself in a way that shows you are approachable, express interest in others, and exude confidence.

People reading skills: Many people think that they have the natural ability to read others but few do. All kinds of perceptual and cognitive biases get in the way of how you read other people. Learning how to effectively read people and interpret their communication signals will transform your communication patterns.

Presentation skills: Deliver power presentations, make effective use of PowerPoint and increase your business results.

Storytelling techniques: Tell a story or describing a situation in a way that is rich with details, engaging, and fascinating draws people to you and makes them remember you.

Personal branding: Learn how to promote and market yourself. Overcome discomfort about selling yourself and yours services, and confidently describe your value.

Aggressive or passive no more: Develop the right level of assertiveness. Learn how to say no, ask for help, delegate, express your opinions, appropriately disagree with people, and influence others.

Humor development: Everybody likes to be around people who make them laugh. Develop your abilities to be funny, warm, and entertaining. Take anxiety out of the picture so you can be the naturally likable and amusing person that you are.
