Book excerpt: Positively Speaking: The Art of Constructive Conversations with a Solutions Focus By Paul Z Jackson and Janine Waldman Suppose.. You've got a difficult conversation that you're really not looking forward to You want to change your boss's mind, but he doesn't listen You need your team - or your children - to take responsibility for their own issues Top consultants Paul Z Jackson and Janine Waldman take you on a tour of successful, constructive conversations, from preparation through opening remarks to agreeing the right actions. Illustrated throughout with tips, examples and exercises, Positively Speaking will develop your skills in creating dialogue that works well for you at work, in social settings and at home. With a resource-based, solutions-focused approach, you will find it simpler and more enjoyable to get what you want by talking to people the Positively Speaking way. And the results will be positively extraordinary. Praise for Positively Speaking: "With Positively Speaking Jackson and Waldman have created my dream Solutions Focus book: they make the concepts absurdly easy to understand and - more importantly - they make the material relevant to my work and relationships " Dr. Robert Biswas-Diener, Programme Director, Center of Applied Positive Psychology "The strategic application of Solution Focused approaches can help unlock the most challenging aspects of executive leadership in the modern public sector. Jackson and Waldman's approach instils the discipline of simplicity and builds confidence through positive enquiry. I have greatly benefited from working with them and recommend Positively Speaking as a way ahead." Andrew Fowlie, General Manager, NHS Grampian "For me, there's nothing like going on a course and gaining new skills - unless it's a book like 'Positively Speaking', which gives me background, theory, case studies, models and, most importantly real concrete ways to put all of that into practice in my day-to day work of coaching, facilitation and working through conflict. This book is a real asset to any practitioner who needs to 'just do it' - just great." Ann Lukens, Director, Groupworks "This resource really does live up to its aim of helping us learn more about what we can do rather than what we can't. I like the way it brings the idea of Solutions Focus to life through examples, case studies and practical exercises. I'll definitely be using these ideas in my work as a facilitator and coach." Colin Coombs, Learning & Development Manager, Tate Paul Z Jackson and Janine Waldman are co-directors of The Solutions Focus (www.thesolutionsfocus.co.uk), leading a team of consultants, facilitators and coaches who apply this approach worldwide in organisations including Beiersdorf (Nivea), PepsiCo, Reading Borough Council, John Laing and The Metropolitan Police

Speaking positively changes it all, our awareness and behaviours, and it also empowers us to manifest the beautiful life we want/desire to live. You'll learn: - The keys to success over failure - How what you say manifests health or disease - The secrets to self-esteem over self-harm - How to be a leader instead of a follower - How to be a hero not a victim - How truth is more powerful than lies - Why love conquers hate Take a positive step today.

Book excerpt: We all can agree that being a good public speaker is an attribute. Great leaders, prominent business people and others we admire, are known for their ability to communicate. Public speaking is a key skill whether you want to stand up as a leader, become more competent at work, or just improve your day-to-day communication. Some are born with the natural gift of being an excellent public speaker. Others have developed it over the years. Regardless of where you are on your public speaking journey, you can always improve and hone this ability. Our communication is one way people size us up or judge us. Whether you agree with it or not, It is used as a gauge at work and in social settings to determine where we stand. Being a better communicator will help you climb both the work and social ladders. Sometimes being a good communicator is mistaken with being knowledgeable. We all know of countless examples of good communicators being successful despite their lack of knowledge or hard work. I will admit, as I improved my public speaking and communication skills, I was the beneficiary of being seen as more competent in a management role than I actually was. Just imagine if you were able to be a better public speaker or communicator. By pairing this communication skill with your knowledge and hard work ethic, there is no limit to where you will end up both professionally and personally. I can’t even count how many successful presentations, speeches, sales pitches and social engagements I have been a part of. More importantly, I have taught and helped numerous students and clients become better public speakers. These speakers have gone on to be better salespeople, move up their corporate ladder and become more likeable in their social circles. Some have even made it so far down the path, that they are now true masters of public speaking. This book is a collection of the strategies and tactics that I share with them. This is your opportunity to take a crash course on becoming a master public speaker. Just think of the impact that we could have. Good public speakers can empower, encourage and persuade entire crowds with just one speech. At work, you can motivate your team, land that big sale or project as well as talk your way into a promotion. Have you ever overheard someone having a conversation at a restaurant or other public setting and their simple conversation sounded like an authentic yet well rehearsed speech? Look at how others admire orators like that. There is no reason that you can’t excel in the same way. I am sure we agree that the above points are important, but why do we really need to improve our public speaking skills? The possible benefits are powerful and endless. Imagine having an improved sense of self-esteem. Picture yourself having better communication and leadership skills. You can have more friends and a larger professional network. Your personal satisfaction will go through the roof. This isn’t a scam. It’s a promise. Just work on the skills in this book, get out there and get exposure.
