book-leadership-obama Anyone who has heard Obama speak during the recent presidential election campaign will agree with me that he is indeed a very distinguished speaker, mesmerizing in fact.  As such, it is interesting to read this thorough dissection of all the strategies and techniques Obama uses to make his point and to inspire his listeners. Ranging from the effective use of body language and the use of repetition to drive his point home, to energizing his audience through voice and intonation, Obama appears to have mastered the craft of speaking.  As a result, this book is a must read for any executive leader, politician and/or platform speaker who relies on communication to convey their vision.
