Get to the Point!: Sharpen Your Message and Make Your Words Matter

One of the books I will reread in my life. Short, to the point, and digestible. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

straight to the point, with excellent practical recommendations, I really liked it

-This is a great read for a seasoned leader as well as emerging leaders.-The author proves his thesis in example after example without being boring or redundant.-The book is concise, while being prolific.-I highly recommend to aspiring public speakers and writers.

One of the best (clear, concise, actionable) business books I own. It is useful for both business and personal communication. I love books that exemplify what they teach and this book does that to an impressive degree.My only complaint is that the Kindle Edition has at least one serious error not found in the print version. That surprised me as I assumed the Kindle edition would be more up to date, not less.

Short chapters, well-organized and actionable recommendations.If you want to learn how to improve your speeches and presentation, this book gives practical advice to start enhancing them right away.

One of my biggest fears has always been speaking in public. If you put me in a group of people or one-on-one and I usually do fine. The problem is when I get asked to get on a stage or in front of a class. I think the big problem I have is that I just start to ramble. When I ramble I get nervous and confused and go off on a tangent. Like the reviews before me, I have used the points in this book to streamline my speeches and my instructions. Going into a presentation I also feel like I have a set-out path - a beginning and end, so if I go off tangent, I always know how to bring it home.I recommend this book to anyone who isn't comfortable speaking. It gives you great information that you can apply in any situation. I have to say I liked this book so much, I have a hard copy for my office at home and a digital copy on my kindle to use as a reference when needed.

This book will help you stay focused while communicating. It's fairly elementary. The author shares his experience well. Go for it for a quick read.

Great review of how to create more impact in written or verbal communication. An important reminder of how keeping it simple can be the most powerful persuader of all.

Schwartzbweg, in roughly a hundred pages, gives really helpful tips to convey your message with less words.Book was easy to follow, filled with examples and was very practical.A great recommendation for those who want to sharpen their speaking skills quickly.

It's only 100 pages but that's still too much to make the points it's making. Really didn't need to be a book.

Excellent and on the spot with good ideas on how to write a succesful presentations in which your audience wond get bored after the first 5 minutes and also will remember what you were saying. The author makes a point in saying you have to sell the point rather than merely sharing it, that way you will have a better impact on your audience and your desired outcome will have more chances in happening. Almost makes me want to share with the office manager to avoid those useless briefings where no one learns anythi g apart that the manager likes the sound of his voice🙄

You can get the information in this by just googling - how to write better or related terms. The content doesn't deserve an entire book.I wouldn't recommend it.

It's a must read, especially when you stumble across ideas that you cannot communicate without straying away from the point you're trying to make.
