Praise for
THE MOTIVATED SPEAKER
"A refreshingly approachable and empowering guide to public speaking, this addition to the literature combines actionable strategies with emotional intelligence to create a utilitarian playbook for speakers of all experience levels."
- MATT VANDENBERG, President, Ohio Wesleyan University
"In any organization, leaders need exceptional presentation skills, but teaching these skills can be a significant challenge. For over ten years, we have partnered with the Articulation team to assist our leaders in succession in delivering effective and actionable communication. The Motivated Speaker sheds light on what sets their coaching and training apart. They go beyond teaching mere skills; they foster a transformative mindset shift within leaders."
- NICHOLE KNEEDLER, Chief Talent Officer and EVP, The Huntington National Bank
"As someone who spends every day in the professional speaking world, I can tell you my trajectory to this place would have been a lot faster had I read this book years ago. Ruth, Acacia and Blythe have finally explained why someone becomes a better speaker over another. Assuredly a must-read for anyone trying to improve their speaking skills at any level."
- JON PETZ, Amazement Artist(TM), National Speakers Bureau Hall of Fame Member
"I call on this team when I have smart leaders who need to communicate with greater impact. This book demonstrates why their training is so effective. They go beyond simple dos and don'ts and make you think differently every time you speak."
- BARBARA KELLEY, Vice President People, Safelite
"Everyone benefits from speaking well, whether they are talking with a colleague informally or presenting in a high-stakes setting. But most of us have never had any training on how to speak well. And the books that are out there tend to provide tips and tricks instead of principles that change our approach to speaking. Finally, we have a book that explains transformative concepts for speaking that is accessible for all of us. The three talented coaches and trainers have used the threshold concepts framework to invite all of us into effective and successful verbal communication."
- ELIZABETH WARDLE, Director, Roger and Joyce Howe Center for Writing Excellence, Miami University
