Nice

This book was a game changer. It helped me make my purpose actionable by adjusting my self-talk/ language. The language of agency should be mandatory learning for all!

Great book, super insightful!

Magico libro che spiega il potere delle parole e come noi comuni mortali possiamo utilizzare il linguaggio per convincere, fare colpo, far capire, comunicare, etc. A me è piaciuto tantissimo.

A really interesting, easily digestible book looking at the impact of subtle differences in language usage. Well worth a read!

We know it all but we sometimes forget. These book explains it again based on research and examples. Undestandable language, not to much text for little content. It is more a collection of research done by professor and team put together than collection of magic words. It is about how to conwey message you want to someone with more success. Short random research results that isn't really new to more informed reader.
