This is book to help all the people who still shutter when talking to a bunch of people or make people understand their words or make some coherent words to express themselves completely and powerfully. Let's us know our own skills and boundaries.

And while all these to understand more to make it more simple, the author uses his own little life stories and many references from age old book to Shakespeare. The author then goes on sharing the practical skills, skills to accomplish the above mentioned negativity .
A book I'm so thankful for after finishing. The author with his simple writing, in 18 chapters of the book, step by step tries to accomplish the task. A book which probably has it's targeted readers, I still like to recommend everyone, to give this very useful book a try.

Excellent Self-Help for the Public-Speaking Impaired
Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2023
Public speaking persists as a top fear amongst the majority of the population. And yet our lives become more and more inundated with the pressure to “go live” or perform or Heaven-forbid at least SPEAK to a group of people.
Who stare. And wait. And judge. Are you sweating yet (autocorrect tried to change that to swearing. Maybe you’re swearing, too)?
Mike’s been there. Hundreds of times, step by step, word by word, drop by drop - through the stage fright and the anxiety. And he’s helped people not only survive that first round of hurdles, but get up on whichever stage they’ve chosen. And he’s brought them from deers in headlights to someone who speaks with confidence.
Wait, what? No, public speaking is survival of the fittest. Grin and bear it. Don’t blink first… Only those crazy people (extroverts) thrive on being on stage.
Wrong. This won’t fix your phobia in a day (there’s another book before this one that helps get you from teeth-chattering under the bed to on stage w/o passing out), so this one starts at the Suck it up Buttercup stage - and provides a solid framework: how to create a speech or talk you can feel confident about. And a wealth of knowledge and tips on how you can prepare AND perform confidently.
Won’t erase the butterflies in your stomach, but definitely will provide months’ worth of practical guidance that would cost *thousands of dollars* to get from a professional coach.
Ready for your TED talk? Need to talk to the audit committee and give them difficult news? Boss hounding you to go “be part of the community” at networking events…by speaking (or guesting on a podcast). Got orals for a big dollar sales opp you just have to nail?
This book. Right here. Scroll up, and buy. Own your confidence.

Review - This book is just fantastic!! I am a reader of self-help and personality development books especially, so I basicly like to study in details the books that I read, but this book is what I needed the most as I too faced the problem of low self-esteem and difficulty in speaking in frOnt of anyone(not from my family) It seems like every idea that I read is important and I want to retain it. Amazing, fantastic, awesome, deserved to be read and kept, even in a decluttered house!! And as a conclusion, I already start to see improvements in my behaviours and way of speaking because I start to understand the significance and psychology underneath out way of speaking.

First of all, it's not really a book if you are a shy guy who wants to develop self-confidence. Let me clear this first. This title “How to Master Your Pageant Talk” is the book that describes how a pageant can improve and develop self confidence and awareness to win the world of beauty. It has keen chapters that focus on self growth through the improvement of mindset.
Confidence and the ability to speak publicly are codependent, and when one improves the other does too. To become a better public speaker is to master the art of diction and literacy, telling better stories, and using good examples. The only way to learn how to speak publicly is to do the activity itself, yes you still need to prepare yourself, but at one point you just have to do it and improve from there.
This book serves good advice to all that are looking to improve their abilities to speak in a public setting. For people who have experience with public speaking, I don't think there is much more to be learnt in this book than you have learned in real life.
How the Book Changed Me....
~How my life / behaviour / thoughts / ideas have changed as a result of reading the book.
~Has made me try to improve my diction and vocabulary.
~Has changed my ability to captivate people in a discussion.
I recommend this book to anyone who would like to explore and understand more regarding their inner self. Grab the book, it won't let you get bored at any point. This book is a page turner from beginning to end. Language is simple with a good vocabulary. The author has done a great job.

"Identity is your heart—who is saying it.
• Message is your head—what is being said.
• Skills are your hands—how it is being said."
This book focuses on a very important topic like confidence matters a lot in the life of all of us. It is true that without confidence we cannot achieve anything in life unless we have confidence. Three things are very important in our life to develop confidence: Identify Yourself, define your message and develop skills. If we lack even one of the three, then we are not complete. We have two ways, either we accept our flaws and improve them. It is also true that the more we create skills within ourselves, the more our confidence level will be boosted.
This book proved to be good for me because I was very lacking in confidence. Whether it is in giving an interview or talking to someone and proving yourself. I used to get frustrated due to a lack of confidence everywhere. I will not say that the book will boost your confidence level, I will just say that the book will become a path to boosting your confidence level. This book became a guide for me, with the help of this book I improved my flaws and I have increased my confidence level to a great extent. If you are also facing disappointment due to low confidence in your life like me, then precisely read this book. This will improve your life a lot.

Excellent Ideas, But a Bit Overwritten and Author Focused
In the introduction of this book, the author makes clear who this book isn't for. If you fear speaking, he recommends his first book., Speak with No Fear. If you’ve read that and applied it (or already passed a paralyzing fear of public speaking), this book has you work on what the author considers to be its crucial second step: building confidence to speak. He approaches this from three angles, first helping you understand yourself better—like do you suffer from internally directed imposter syndrome—second helping you gain more confidence in your message (including well-thought-out systems to help you with standard and off-the-cuff speeches, as well as what to do if you find yourself rambling), and finally helping you develop actual speaking skills, like tone, verbal variety, and nonverbal communication.
I found the author long-winded at times, getting to the point often in a slow, circumlocutious route. He is also sometimes tangential, discussing other topics separate from public speaking or confidence. He also tends to be a little me-centric, often the fault of nonfiction books based on the author's experience. Authors should keep in mind that the book isn't about them; rather, it should be about how their knowledge and skills can help the reader. There are certainly nuggets here about speaking with confidence, but you might have to do a little work to separate the wheat from the chaff.
3.5 stars rounded up to 4
I received a fee copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.

✍️ Public speakers are playing excellent motivational works these days. They are talented, experienced and have amazing command over human. Watching speakers at stage is amazing but what about the vice-versa?
Ofcourse we all love to talk but that talks always roaming around our close people. Most of the time it becomes difficult while talking to strangers. Especially when the language is not your mother tongue.
👉 So here in this book, you can get all your answers. In the simplest possible way, the author has described how to overcome fear and be fluent in english.
Having command over a language is not about knowing it wholesome, it's about the way you are encoding your message to the other end. If the front person get connected with what you talk, it's a bingo.
Through 18 chapters this book can be used as one of the guidebook to learn vocab, increasing communication skills and making people aware about their true abilities.
Overall this book is a good fast read for me and I feel this can be a good book for anyone who wants to gain confidence at speaking.

If we ask people regarding the tips and techniques which they can provide to help us in becoming successful or achieving our objectives, majority of them will respond by saying that we should do everything that we do with honesty and confidence.
And while many of us are left wondering on how others sound so confident naturally, often we seem to overlook the fact that it is a skill which can be easily acquired by taking few steps in the right and proper direction.
Hence, ‘Speak with Confidence’ by author Mike Acker can therefore be touted as a great guidebook to help the readers in honing their confidence and mastering the most important tools which they have so that they can leave a good impression on others.
The ability of a person to be able to communicate their message, their passion, and their opinions, all the while keeping the other individual engaged is what many dream to achieve, hence I can say that this book will not help the readers to gain this, but also much more valuable lessons. So, I am going to give this FIVE STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The book comes from the author of the top-rated book called "Speak With No Fear". The author firmly believes that public speaking is one skill that gives you the edge over most people. If the previous book was about overcoming the fear of public speaking, this book is the next step. The author through this book navigates through a step by step approach towards confident public speaking. The book starts with the idea that "You are the Message". The author then talks about navigating through the obstacles in public speaking and how to develop the content according to your audience. The most interesting and insightful part for me was where the author discusses rambling and how to control it while addressing an audience. The book is full of such tools which aid you and boost your confidence in speaking. Lastly the author talks about habits and body language which exudes confidence and those which don't. I found this entire book to be a very effective guide on speaking in public and communicating effectively.
