Publisher's Summary
Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them.
But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.
Join Dr. Allison Friederichs to discover how every single interaction we have is an opportunity to use clear and compelling communication tactics. However daunting or unpredictable the situation, we have the power to strategically choose how we communicate. Every single time. And how we communicate can change everything.
Over the course of 10 lessons, you will have fun exploring words—what they offer us, where they come from, what influences their meaning and vice versa, and how to expand your vocabulary. You’ll learn how to choose the right words for every scenario, and you’ll learn how those words can revolutionize your personal and professional life.

A good course to brush up an tune your messages
For a course on communications this was an easy listen. The narration was easy on the ear and helped with comprehension. Simple ideas and instruction with excellent context and examples. it taught me a few things about grammar and conveing information I didn't know or had mot considered.

Very Informative and Well explained
I have enjoyed the course very much because of the way she explained the importance of using strategies of languages. Although English is my second language it was still very simple to understand the core of the lactate.

Includes useful introductory information & advice
This was easily digestible with many clear examples of useful improvements that can be implemented in one’s communication. I recommend it for students and those who lack confidence in their communication. It sounded like ‘ec cetera’ was being said instead of ‘et cetera’. I’m not sure if it was an audio problem, an error or an inside joke.

Word choices
This helped me not only to understand the importance of communication styles and how we use/perceive them, it also helps with empathy and considerate communication.

Wrong choice of narrator.
I didn't make it very far through this book I'm afraid. I felt that every sentence was either encapsulated with quotation marks and/or, finished with an exclamation mark. This was frustrating as a book on learning really aught to have considered that how it was presented might have an effect on how the listener learned or did not learn from the book. An alternate narrator may have improved my experience, but your mileage may vary.
