Your office is a place full of interactions and communication, whether it’s in a one-on-one meeting with a boss or employee, chatting about a project with a coworker, or pitching your ideas to the whole team. Whether you call it people skills or presentation skills, the ability to communicate with the people around you is crucial in the workplace and one that can be improved with these simple steps in Running Presentations & Meetings!

Communication is a vital part of human lives. It is the act of transferring information from one person to another. If you think that it's a very simple process, you're wrong. It's often difficult to say what you mean and produce your intended result. How you're supposed to communicate is a very complex subject. The sender of the message is supposed to encode a message in a form that's suitable for the receiver to decode.

Communication skills are the most important personal skills you can ever develop for your success in life. Life is a series of communications. Those who develop strong communication skills do well in school, secure jobs and promotions, and often ascend to the highest levels of leadership in corporations, governments, and civic life. People who fail to develop communication skills often have their careers stagnate or plateau in the mid-range. This book is written to make it simpler for you to comprehend what persuasion and negotiations are all about.
