As someone with crippling stage fright of any kind - a school presentation in front of few people gives me nightmares, I had high hopes for the book. The ideas are quite good, explained step by step, so you can follow them quite well. A great tool for someone who has a mild fear, but if it's anything deeper, I don't see this all that helpful, at least it wasn't for me.

Well this book certainly lives up to it's title bold in cover and title and bold in promoting you to act in steps building up your confidence and tackling anxiety that maybe trying to control you in a situation you need to be bold and fearless in speaking or presenting in.

With many examples of situations of aiding others snd steps breaking down how to act to reach peak confidence and ability in yourself with great detail I feel like I've learnt from the book to simply stand tall, believe in myself more when I speak and confidence can come through.

The book is thoughtfully structured. The format is more or less thematic, followed by a breakdown of topics along with some practical (and some not so practical) advice and step-by-step. While there’s some value in this, I didn’t find the book to be generally too informative or too valuable. The guidance is often easier said than done and the “just do it” is often unhelpful.
