Largely unimpressed with this book. A few good tips but nothing more. It’s a good starting point t if you have absolutely no clue of where to start. If you have read already a few books in the personal development space and have a decent level of education, there is better out there.

[Anapero · Rating 2 out of 5]

Maybe this is a good book for younger readers (15-25). For me (40), it was too shallow, I'd say a booklet really.
Every topic was just scratched and very little was explained in depth. Having recently read 'Never Split the Difference' by Chris Voss (which I highly recommend to anyone interested in the communication topic) , I was especially disappointed by the chapter 'The Art of Diffusion'. It is missing so much information!
What I do like is that there are ample examples and that the author has a direct style of writing. I feel that if the book was 3 or 4 times thicker, he would have filled it wisely. We'll never know ;)

So helpful!

This book offered many truly helpful tips and insights. From body language to starting conversations and keeping them going. There is a good amount of information for communication at work, less for families. A large portion deals with dating. Since I'm married, it was irrelevant to me. Altogether, very well written and helpful. Well worth the read.

Wow!!! Great reference book.

I am definitely keeping this book as a reference. The book has many easy-to-implement conversation examples that I will be practicing. The book gives me the tools to communicate better. Never too late to do better. Get this book. Worth your time.

As a parent, connecting with my kids, especially my teenaged daughter, has been quite challenging to say the least. However, this book's methods and guidance have proven to be a tremendous help in bridging the communication gap.

Now, we can have more honest conversations and share our feelings without anyone getting upset of stomping off in a huff, which has led to a significant bonding and breakthroughs for my family. I am delighted to see how this has strengthened our bond and brought us closer together. A highly recommended read for parents seeking to improve their relationships with their children.

How to talk to anyone is an essential read for anyone aiming to enhance their online dating skills. It emphasizes the significance of nonverbal communication in the digital realm, providing valuable insights on captivating and engaging your audience, even through "the black mirror" of online interactions. The sections on presenting oneself effectively on dating apps and social media are particularly helpful, offering valuable tips for creating a standout profile that truly makes a difference. Highly recommended for those seeking success in the world of online dating. . Move over Casanova because Lucas Bailey’s in town!

This should be called “How to Talk to Anyone for Real". So on point in its guidance including well researched information from credible cited sources, this isn’t the usual nonsense/nonscience riddled with outdated author opinions. Personally, I have been trying some of the ideas to boost my communication skills in pretty much every aspect of my life. So far, I have found it most helpful in strengthening my relationships with my kids and partner by learning to “shut up and listen”, and have also been making a significant impact at work by getting my contributions heard by people that matter. I wholeheartedly recommend this book for your collection.

This book is has been an immense help, on guiding me back to having a life after O shit myself away due to something negative that happened to me socially a few years back.
This book delivers its teachings in a clear and somewhat compassionate way and even managed to make me smile with some of its warm and good humoured over tones! The chapters about active listening and also the socialising online have been a real help as I feel that it is an easy in for me to get back out there. Brilliant work Lucas Bailey, I am grateful for finding it.

[Irma Ruiz · Rating 5 out of 5]

Packed with well researched and referenced info, and free from jargon this easy-to-implement communication guide gives exactly what the title suggests and goes beyond the usual cliches that these books are usually riddled with.
I love the character references and stories. It makes it real and feel relatable. The suggested methods are straight forward which makes a nice change and it covers everything from communicating with your body language, to setting up an online dating profile well. Well worth the time.

Bailey's book truly transformed my networking abilities and boosted my confidence to new heights. As an introvert, I've always struggled to connect with others in social and business settings, but her strategies were a game-changer. Thanks to her insightful advice, I now approach networking with charm and charisma, leaving behind my previous awkwardness. Whether it's professional or social gatherings, this book has been an invaluable tool in helping me network like a pro. Highly recommended for anyone looking to improve their networking skills!

How to talk to anyone has had a profound impact on how I communicate with my partner. Our conversations have become more honest and open, devoid of unnecessary conflicts or personal offense, leading to a stronger and more meaningful bond between us. I particularly enjoyed the writer's unique approach of using unlikely role models like Morticia and Gomez from the Adams family when discussing relationships – I mean let’s be honest, who doesn’t want a passionate connection like theirs in their lives? Highly recommended for anyone seeking to enhance their relationship communication.

If you’re looking to level up your small talk then look no further. As someone who used to struggle with it as I quite often see it as pointless even though I know that it’s important to build relationships, I am now thrilled to discover the techniques that make it not only much easier, but purposeful as well. I can confidently engage in conversation with almost anyone, and it has significantly improved my social life, especially when meeting new people. Highly recommended for those seeking to master the art of small talk!

In a world of social media posts, WhatsApp communication, and online dating apps, managing your online presence is a crucial piece to the social puzzle. This guide provides a ton of valuable insights on how to make your online persona charming and alluring, avoiding stiffness. What sets it apart is the inclusion of helpful advice not only for social media but also for dating apps, offering a unique perspective that I hadn't considered before. Highly recommended for anyone seeking to navigate the digital world with grace and authenticity.

[Teresa Herrera · Rating 5 out of 5]

More than another basic small talk book. This one actually teaches you how to communicate better both verbally and non-verbally. The writing style is fun and non-judgy which makes the experience easy going and the message come across simple. I like the parts about building rapport with someone you’ve just met, getting them to talk about themselves and mirror you, this makes it possible to make connections easily even when introvert or shy. Recommended.

[Jordan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just finished reading and I loved it (I can see why this is an award winner). The advice it offers goes beyond just enhancing my social skills; it has significantly improved my communication in the workplace. Now, my colleagues genuinely listen, and my ideas are taken seriously instead of being talked over. It's incredible how a few simple ideas can make such a remarkable difference. Highly recommend for anyone looking to be heard and respected at work!

[Warren Rhodes · Rating 5 out of 5]

Having enjoyed Bailey's other books, I decided to give this one a shot, and I’m pleased to say that it absolutely lived up to the hype. A fantastic resource for anyone seeking to enhance their communication skills, it delves into the significance of both verbal and nonverbal communication and how to captivate and engage any audience, regardless of its size. This book is a must-read for those aiming to leave strong, positive, and lasting impressions on those they interact with.

[Herbert James · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it! This straight talking and rather fun read has helped empower me to inject some much needed charisma and confidence into my body language and into what I say when meeting new people. The impact on my personal and professional relationships has been significant. I don’t feel like another third wheel spinning in place in social situations, or just another face in the crowd as Bailey puts it; instead, I now stand out (in a good way!) with a newfound sense of self-assurance.

[Harold · Rating 5 out of 5]

Lucas Bailey's book on communication techniques is a true life-changer! The insights provided are remarkably simple to apply, yet they have had a profound impact on my relationships, particularly with my kids and partner at home. If you're seeking to enhance communication with loved ones, this book is an absolute must-read!

[Amelia · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book's conversational and occasionally humorous tone made it an enjoyable read, especially for someone like me who finds small talk challenging. The relatability of the advice and the informative sections about different role models brought a smile to my face, making the content much easier to absorb. Highly recommended for those seeking to improve their communication skills!
