New Book Helps Business Leaders Become Powerful Speakers Using the Latest Brain Science

In The Myth of Public Speaking, psychotherapist and renowned speech coach Danny Slomoff also explains why there is no such thing as public speaking

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Blank looks. Confused expressions. People looking at their cell phones or wishing they were anywhere else. When business executives lose their audiences, it is usually because they have bought into communication myths.

According to Danny Slomoff, Ph.D., the author of the new book The Myth of Public Speaking: The Revolutionary Brain-Based System for Communicating in Business (Caruso Press), there is no such thing as public speaking—it's simply talking. And talking is the same whether it is to one person or an auditorium full of people.

He says, "The research shows that every human being is born with the neurons for perfect speaking. Instead of using them, we learn to talk by imitating parents and peer groups. As a result, we create an alternative habit pattern full of errors. At Slomoff Consulting Group, we use a system of exercises to stimulate the correct neurons. Executives immediately experience speaking perfectly without errors."

Slomoff asserts that there are no natural-born speakers. Similar to all brain-based coordination systems like music and sports, speaking at the highest level requires practice and commitment. The benefit of using The Slomoff Method© is that there are no techniques involved. Instead, it utilizes the way human brains are wired. The method is based on his 35 years of executive leadership coaching with more than 25,000 business leaders and peak performers, including Olympic athletes, dancers, and musicians.

In an interview, Dr. Slomoff, who overcame his own speaking challenges, can talk about:

• What the world's best communicators do
• 5 neurological behaviors of authentic executive presence
• Why mind contact matters more than eye contact
• Where speech patterns and bad habits come from
• Why "winging it" is disrespectful and self-confidence is incredibly deceiving
• The significance of The Swing, The Game, and The Emotional Inner World
