Your voice is powerful and it is time to unleash it. Expressing your ideas accelerates your career. Speaking onstage spreads your reach and impact.

Written by women for women, this practical guide distills thousands of hours of experience and our best tips for public speaking into three sections, each relevant for different stages of your speaking journey. You'll learn about crafting your talk, what you need to do to get to the stage, and what it takes to go pro as a speaker. Use this book to take your career and voice to the next level.
