by Charlie Houpert · 2014

+ Want to read

Some people walk into a room and everyone turns toward them. Charisma on Command sets out to show that this quality is not reserved for a lucky few. Drawing on close study of well-known communicators, from tech founders and former presidents to comedians and motivational speakers, the author breaks down the mindsets, physical habits and practice routines that make someone easy to like and hard to forget. Readers are promised a way to switch that presence on when a situation calls for it, so that they leave a lasting impression on the people they meet.
