The first book we chose is on a topic the majority of students and people in general have issues with – speaking in front of an audience.  The main message of the author is that, in order to become a good speaker you need to overcome the initial fear of talking in front of people by using different techniques and developing courage and self-confidence.

Dale Carnegie states two supporting points in the beginning: First, we need to figure out if we have a strong and firm desire to practice how to talk calmly and confidently in order to become better in our conversational skills; and second to be always aware of what we want to tell the others.

• Improving your memory
• Keeping the audience’s attention
• Stage performance
• Starting the speech
• Controlling the listeners
• Explicit expression of your thoughts

• Provoking the listener’s participation

The author has a very good way of expressing his ideas and the book is an easy read, giving clear instructions and explanations for the techniques. Everything is covered, from “how to build the structure of your speech” to “scene behavior”.
