About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
What if charisma could be taught?
What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab and every person you meet a chance to experiment.
The Charisma Myth is a mix of fun stories, sound science and practical tools. Cabane takes a scientific approach to a heretofore mystical topic, covering what charisma actually is, how it is learned, what its side effects are and how to handle them.
©2013 Olivia Fox Cabane (P)2022 Penguin AudioCritic Reviews
"Engaging, clear and chock-full of wisdom, practical recommendations and uncommonly good sense." (Stephen Kosslyn, director, Center for Study of Behavioral Sciences at Stanford)
"Cabane has done us a big favour. She's woven solid science and engaging narrative into an instructive treatment of the role of charisma in leadership." (Robert B. Cialdini, author of Influence)
"If you are interested in increasing your ability to be charismatic in your unique setting or employment, this book will give you direct skills to use." (Psychology Today)

Good however overly lengthy
Good however too wordy. Narration monotone, not interesting nor reflects one of the main recommendations for Charisma to add interest to your voice, presentation.
Would love to listen again to relearn critical suggestions however couldn’t bear to hear this voice any longer.

need to be able to visualise.
interesting enough to learn about the techniques available to people. More than a little irritating to be told over and over to visualise if you don't have the capacity to see images in your mind.

Obvious AI Voice Edits
Good book. Reading is a bit fast at times (eg no natural pause at the end of a chapter), and AI edits are obvious throughout.

The applicable tips she talks about are phenomenal
Great stories that we can all relate to. Many incredible tips that are applicable; yes it is "scary" but like Olivia mentions, it's getting out of the comfort only a few times to make it a habit
Highly recommend this book!

I bought it so you don't have to
Making far too many evolutionry assumptions to conclude points. References people like Bill Clinton as being caring people Even in 2012 when this book was published there was clear evidence of him being a rapist. lastly no one cares about Steve Jobs he's dead and he's not coming back to save you. This book is a joke don't waste your money.
