Fear is the #1 reason businesses fail, organizations get stuck, and employees underperform. As a leader, this is one of the most critical realizations you can make. When employees are experiencing fear, they make fewer sales calls, handle conversations badly, drive down morale, abuse sick time, and often show up late to work. And some can have an endless supply of excuses, rationalizations, and justifications for not stepping into their potential.

Overcoming Fear provides a roadmap for your people to move from being locked down to being bolder. This book has inspired people to improve their sales numbers, go for promotions, be better team players, and improve their work and home lives.

We experience emotions—positive and negative—that we developed years ago. And we each bring that history into every relationship, every job, and every situation. If the emotions we hang on to are unhealthy, so are our reactions in the workplace. Countless hours are wasted by people who can’t handle their situations effectively. Feelings get hurt, people critical to the team’s success stop talking to each other, and problems get swept under the rug only to reemerge far worse later. It’s difficult to pursue excellence when your people are indulging their lowest emotions.

Emotional Intelligence outlines how your people can improve the way they look at, process, and manage their emotions, converting their knee-jerk reactions into even-handed responses. This book also shows how to understand other people’s emotions and interact with them more effectively.

Most presentations are mediocre if not horrible. Your people are cramming slides full of words, talking at the audience instead of engaging with it, and following their own agenda instead of giving the audience what it needs. And it’s hurting your sales, your association’s membership levels, and your bottom line. Success will go to the company or organization that can reach their audience by addressing their needs and creating a memorable experience.

Public Speaking addresses the fear around speaking and provides a blueprint for building a great presentation. If your people are afraid to pick up the phone, stand in front of prospective clients, or present at a conference, it doesn’t have to be this way. Fear of public speaking is a head game and this book shows the way forward.
