To bring this admirable personality trait to life, all it takes are a few simple strategies that past leaders have been using for centuries. You'll find those strategies in this handbook.
Destroying forever the myth that charisma is a gift given only to a few, The Charisma Factor shows you how to become the natural-born leader you can be by focusing on the emotional energy of others and inspiring them to move toward greater endeavors.
The guide provides strategies that show you how to reach others with the language of emotion.

These techniques are broken down into simple-to-follow steps that have been drawn from hundreds of hours of interviews, transcripts, film analysis, and testing - giving you the tools you need to consistently inspire and charismatically lead others. You'll also find the one tool used to trigger motivation in others: this straightforward method has been proven by history's most powerful leaders to be the most effective and enduring for energizing and motivating employees and followers; three steps of charismatic communication: presents charisma as a tangible concept that, when broken down, you can easily use to achieve results in your own life; fourteen techniques of emotional management: offers six primary and eight advanced techniques for managing the emotions of others in order to fuel their highest performance; techniques to bond with followers: shows you how to apply the entrainment technique and others to easily bond with people and break down any barriers that might be hindering your natural leadership ability.
