Jeffrey Jacobi, a Juilliard-trained voice coach, shows how anyone can gain a competitive edge by fully utilizing his or her natural speaking qualities. This book will guide readers step by step through self- tests, exercises, and sample speeches that will help them to develop a strong, clear, authoritative voice that projects an aura of power, confidence, and persuasiveness; overcome common speech problems like poor enunciation, rapid-fire speech, monotonous delivery, and a nervous, shaky sound; diminish accents; and eliminate other distracting and self-defeating speech problems that can often determine success or failure in business.
