Every interaction is a performance, and much of our
success--professional and personal--hinges on being able to inspire an
audience. And while some people seem to be naturals in the spotlight,
this ability very rarely derives from talent alone.
Confident communication is a skill, and anyone can learn how to do
it.
In Steal the Show, New York Times bestselling author, top-rated
corporate speaker, and former professional actor Michael Port teaches
you how to make the most of your own moments in the spotlight. He makes
it easy to give your presentations a clear focus, engage your listeners,
manage your nerves, play the right role in every situation to give your
message maximum impact, and much more. Drawing on his MFA training at
the prestigious Graduate Acting Program at New York University, Port has
engineered a system that the non-actor can use to ensure his or her
voice is heard when it matters most.

"Michael cuts to the core of what you actually need to get ridiculously
good at speaking and performing, and the results are even more dramatic
than I'd envisioned. Steal the Show is the only book you'll ever need
