  • Discover the secrets to using your voice in a way that captivates your listeners
  • Learn to adapt your speech style to project your most authentic leadership voice while still getting through to any audience
  • Break through mental roadblocks to speaking confidently and compellingly on stage, on camera, or even on the phone
  • Practice charismatic storytelling to bring your data to life in presentations
  • Learn how to put all these pieces together to project your best leadership image, and maximize your influence and positive impact.
Available in Paperback, e-Book, and Audible formats.

Maximize your leadership influence

Let’s face it: Leadership is more than a role, it’s an image, and the way that you communicate — to anyone and everyone — will either reinforce your leadership image in their mind, or sabotage it.

You’ve heard the expression, “It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it.” The truth is: if you want to be a master of influence, it’s both.

When you speak, does your message paint a clear picture and concisely get to the point? Does it showcase your expertise and get through to the listener’s ears, mind and heart? Does your delivery completely captivate them, or do they just feel like they are being held captive? Most importantly, does your delivery inspire people to get on board with your vision?

If your answer isn’t “yes” to all of the above, and you need a concise, easily-digestible resource with tips you can immediately put into action every day, this is the fast-track handbook to launch you to successfully conquering Dr. Laura Sicola’s Three Cs: Command the room, Connect with your audience and Close the deal, and becoming a Master of Influence.
