Synopses

The Storyteller's Secret

Carmine Gallo explores why the brain is described as hardwired to respond to stories, with particular reference to rags-to-riches narratives. The book also draws on science to explain how to shape a persuasive narrative intended to influence hearts and minds.

It includes a comment from Richard Branson on storytelling as a way to drive change, and positions personal stories as a force that can affect business, life, and the people around you.

Talk Like TED

This book describes how TED Talks have reshaped expectations of what makes a successful presentation and become a widely recognised benchmark for public speaking. It highlights techniques associated with leading TED speakers and links them to making presentations more dynamic, energising teams, and building confidence for those who fear public speaking.

TED Talks

Written by Chris Anderson, head of TED, this title sets out “inside secrets” on delivering a first-class presentation. It is described as the official TED guide to public speaking from the person credited with putting TED talks on the world stage, and includes an endorsement from Elizabeth Gilbert.
