Shyness, saying the wrong, being at a loss for words, feeling strained or awkward when talking to some people--these and other problems will disappear almost magically as you follow the easy, 3-plateau program this book presents.

* how to put infectious enthusiasm into your conversation
* ways to get people to "open up" with you
* reactions that will cause people to like you instantly
* how to get over common hangups such as shyness or nervousness.
In the second plateau you'll:
* develop your ability to handle the "give-and-take" so necessary for successful conversation.
* discover ways to automatically express your thoughts and ideas clearly.
* master the 5 steps for making sincere and creative listening pay off.
In the 3rd plateau you'll:
* develop all-important timing instincts.
* see how to awaken your senses to add sparkle to your conversation.
