Summary
"Shocking but true-most communication lapses, missteps, and gaffes happen because the speaker or writer is missing something, and they don't even realize it. Lose the room? Didn't make the sale? Your elevator pitch sink to the basement? In almost all cases, you thought you were making a point, but you didn't really have one. You danced around it, you talked about something beside the point, or ended up speaking about yourself. The brilliance of GET TO THE POINT is that once readers follow its quizzes, exercises, and basic lessons they GET IT! This little book has become a classic that has helped tens of thousands"-- Provided by publisher.
