Book Description

What happens when you’re suddenly in a leadership position, but you didn’t plan on being the one speaking up or being listened to?

In a world where communication holds immense power, “Speakership” goes beyond mere public speaking and embraces a holistic approach to guiding others with your words.

Drawing upon stories of family dynamics, work dramas, and TEDx speakers backstage, Speakership Is Leadership presents a thought-provoking exploration of the multifaceted nature of speakership. It offers practical guidance and reflection questions that encourage readers to discover their own communication experiences, envision a future aligned with their values, and identify the “stages” where their speakership can flourish—from conference rooms to family gatherings and even silent moments of presence.

Whether you’re an aspiring public speaker, a team leader, or simply seeking to make a difference, this book is your go-to, practical guide, but will also inspire you to step onto your chosen stages and amplify your voice through the art of speakership.
