Communicate With Charisma

We are excited and delighted to announce that Tom and Jo's updated version of their fabulous book 'Communicate With Charisma' is now available from all leading, online book sellers. Here's the blurb:
Do you ever wish you had the confidence to stand up anywhere, anytime with anyone and just tell your story? Would you like to increase your personal impact when communicating or presenting? Then Communicate With Charisma is the book you've been waiting for. In this book we offer you secret tips and techniques used by professional communicators from public speakers, actors, comedians and singers to help you dramatically increase your personal impact in life and work. But be warned - If the idea of being able to influence people using the power of non-verbal behaviour disturbs you then don't open this book!



Keeping people Awake, Engaged and Informed should be the goal of everyone presenting or pitching their products, services, values, ideas and beliefs to customers, clients and colleagues at all levels in business today.

And there is no better place to observe the management and focus of human energy and personal presence than the world of entertainment. The very livelihood of the professional performer depends on his or her ability to fully engage, captivate and hold the attention of an audience.

But, charismatic performers are not ‘born’; they have to work at their craft. There is a great deal to learn from the way the great entertainers express high levels of energy through their bodies, voices and language and the use of the environment or ‘space’ in which they communicate.


In Communicate With Charisma you will find the tools and unspoken rules which historically have been used by performers to enhance personal presence. In terms of using space and movement, for instance, there is a healthy respect among actors and directors for left and right positioning when it comes to stage and screen craft.


It is clearly possible to apply such principles to interpersonal communications. For example, you may or may not be aware that by standing on the left-hand side of a right-handed person you are more likely to elicit an increased ‘emotional’ response to your presence than if you stood on their right. This can be so powerful as to literally alter the other person’s mood – for better or worse. In addition, when gesturing as you speak, you are sending specific, subliminal messages which alter meaning, dependent upon the height your arms are held.  In the book you will discover how cells in our brains literally begin to activate when we watch a person gesture, causing us to actually ‘experience’ their movements as well as observing them. 


If you are interested in exploring the subtle, subliminal dynamics of interpersonal communication there is so much valuable information in this book the chapter on voice alone is worth the price!
