A well-written book on influencing. The author backs up his claims with science and ends with a section on how to use the information from the perspective of teachers, mentors and coaches. The information will also be useful for people giving presentations and leaders in the business context.

I received a free copy of the book from NetGalley.

I wish everyone whose terrible Powerpoint presentation I've ever had to sit through would read this book. Horvath uses brain science and practical examples to show how people learn, and why--for example--showing a lot of words on a screen is not the way to get your students or coworkers to remember what you said. This should be required reading in business school and management classes.

Stop Talking. Star Influencing is a great book. Everyone, no matter profession or background, should give it a read. It is not just easy to read and entertaining but also highly educational.

I highly recommend it to anyone that is looking into influencing people, eg. teachers, leaders, etc.. I will definitely be getting a hard copy of this book.

I received the ARC through Netgalley for an honest review.

Stop Talking, Start Influencing is an easy to read educational guide for influencing others based on twelve principles of how people learn. Whether you are making a presentation, writing a speech, teaching a course or simply seek to become more influential in your everyday life, the twelve principles can help you achieve your goal. These principles are rooted in neuroscience and are neatly laid out with interesting anecdotes along the way.

Honest and in-depth advice for reaching your full potential. This advice is presented in easy to follow language that can be broken up and applied in pieces at a time.
