Lead The Room: Communicate a message that counts in moments that matter (Paperback or Softback)

Communicate a Message that Counts in Moments that Matter

In the moments that really matter, people don’t just look for something to inform them, they look to someone who will lead them. They don’t just want a speaker, they need a leader. This is a book about making those moments count. If you struggle with public speaking or presenting this book will help, but the real purpose aims higher than that. This is a book to help you become a more effective leader, to help you build and leverage your leadership platform to lead and mobilise your people. 'At the heart of great leadership is great communication. In Lead The Room, Shane brings this truth into the spotlight with infectious energy and enthusiasm… no matter where you are in your leadership journey, you can’t help but learn from it.' -- Tim Costello, Chief Advocate, World Vision Australia 'In a noisy world where people are constantly challenged with how to grab attention to deliver important messages to gain essential engagement and positioning, leadership matters more than ever. Don’t delay – study this [book], action this and lead the room powerfully.' -- Christina Guidotti – CEO, Leading Women 'We don’t need more eloquent speakers we need more authentic communicators. We need to give more focus to our character and content than we do our form and delivery. Thank you, Shane, for providing a tool to encourage that.' -- Daniel Flynn, Co-founder Thankyou and best-selling author of Chapter One

Shane Hatton has spent his career in the business of people. From his early days in event management, recruiting and mobilising large volunteer teams for community events, he has navigated the challenges of leading at scale. Knowing how difficult it can be to get one on one with everyone, he has learned the value of leveraging a communication platform to build trust and rally people around a common vision. From more than a decade of consulting and in-house experience in marketing and communications he has learned the importance of effective messaging to not only be heard but remembered. Shane also spent seven years as a minister. During this time, he was leading and mobilising volunteers in one of Australia’s fastest growing churches and responsible for building and nurturing the health, growth and culture of a rapidly expanding campus. This experience at the intersection of people, communication and leadership, along with his studies in business and psychology, laid the foundation for his work today as a trainer, mentor and speaker to leaders and teams. A self-described ‘charismatic introvert’, Shane has learned how to face the fear of public speaking and embrace the potential of platform leadership. www.shanemhatton.com
