213: Think Faster, Talk Smarter. Matt Abrahams, Stanford

Giving formal presentations is stressful. But there is another,
more common type of communication that is as crucial for success:
unscripted and uncontrollable situations like small talk at a
networking event, an interview, a pitch, a sales
presentation. 


Yet little has been written about spontaneous communication in
business. Until now. In this episode, Matt Abrahams shares his
six-step approach for speaking confidently and clearly when we
don’t have a script. This allows us to focus on what matters:
creating connections with those around you, getting your message
across, and even enjoying the situation.  


Matt is the host of the popular podcast Think Fast, Talk Smart
and author of a brand-new book Think Faster, Talk Smarter: How to
Speak Successfully When You’re Put on the Spot.


He is one of the leading global experts in communication with
decades of experience. As a lecturer at Stanford University’s
Graduate School of Business, he teaches popular classes in
strategic communication.
