Every day there are moments when you must persuade, inform and motivate others effectively. Each of those moments requires
you, in some way, to play a role, to heighten the impact of your words and to manage your emotions and nerves. Every interaction is a performance, whether you’re speaking up in a meeting, pitching a client or walking into a job interview.

He demonstrates how the methods of successful actors can help you connect with, inspire and persuade any audience. His key strategies for commanding
an audience’s attention include developing a clear focus for every performance, making sure you engage with your listeners and finding the best role for yourself in order to convey your message with maximum impact.
Michael Port is one of the most in-demand corporate speakers working today. His presentations are always powerful, engaging
and inspirational. And yes, audiences always give him a standing ovation. ♦
In “The Power of Habit,” Pulitzer Prize–winning business reporter Charles Duhigg takes us to the thrilling edge of scientific discoveries that explain why habits exist and how they can be changed. Distilling vast amounts of information into engrossing narratives that take us from the boardrooms of Procter & Gamble to sidelines of the National Football League to the front lines of the civil rights movement, Duhigg presents a whole new understanding of human nature and its potential. At its core, “The Power of Habit” contains an exhilarating argument: The key to exercising regularly, losing weight, being more productive and achieving success is understanding how habits work. As Duhigg shows, by harnessing this new science, we can transform our businesses, our
communities and our lives. ♦
