Before You Say Anything: The Untold Stories and Failproof Strategies of a Very Discreet Speechwriter -- Victoria Wellman, Hardcover
The convention-breaking creative process of New York's busiest speechwriter, offering a holistic approach to crafting every kind of speech.
The ability to express yourself in words has become both a rite of passage and an essential skill for anyone who wants to make a difference within their family, community, workplace, or beyond. And yet, strategies for engaging a new generation of media and tech-savvy audiences have failed to keep up with the times, leaving speakers wondering how to articulate a resonant message that bristles with detail, authenticity, and emotional truth. While we can't all expect to captivate and inspire millions as Barack Obama and Greta Thunberg have, every speaker--regardless of their experience--can follow a road map to elevate a narrative from serviceable to unforgettable. This is true whether you're roasting a colleague at an office party, delivering a keynote industry address, accepting an award, or eulogizing a loved one.
