How to Think on Your Feet

It takes nerve, and not a little skill, to stand up and be counted in public. This applies whether you're being interviewed for an important job, going on the record to the media, making a sales presentation, or  taking the rostrum at a seminar.

• Bright interviewers will ask questions that are designed to make you contradict yourself.
• A canny client can present objections that make complete nonsense of your carefully prepared sales proposition.
• Tough employers can make your position potentially untenable with black-ans-white facts about declining output or falling sales figures. How do you spot these manoeuvres and sweep the objections and arguments right off the floor? In How to think on your Feet, the author offers ten tried-and-tested maxims that will help you to:
• Improve your communication techniques by leaps and bounds.
• Become fluent and persuasive in all situations.
• Develop your personal credibility and professional know-how.
• Make others sit up and take notice.

All backed up with imaginative scenarios, exercises, anecdotes and humour.
