Brag!

The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It

By: Peggy Klaus

Narrated by: Peggy Klaus

It is well documented that working hard isn't enough to keep your professional star rising: Self-promotion is recognized as one of the most important attributes for getting ahead. But learning to share your talents and successes without coming across as smug or rehearsed is a tricky skill. Now, Peggy Klaus, top communication and leadership coach, has developed a program that will teach anyone to brag - and get away with it. Filled with practical examples of ways in which people in various work-life stages can promote themselves, Klaus teaches readers to communicate strengths and accomplishments without appearing too opportunistic, eager, egotistical, or self-aggrandizing. Now, anyone can communicate with style and substance - in any situation - and walk away shining like the star they are.

Short but some insight

Short but informative. The anecdotes
and examples were a bit simplistic.
I did however pick up a few ideas.

Very Interesting Book

This book was straight forward. Many things in the book you dont realize you are guilty of until you read the book. I found the book very engaging and made me want to listen more. Struggling with confidence at the work place this book has offered great pointers! I feel that I am able to take quite a few of pointers in the book to build the confidence I have been lacking.

How important it is to talk about our personal achievements

Were used to let our job speak for us but that is no longer the case this book is a big eye opener

Brag much?

While a large amount of the book is career focused, there's something for entrepreneurs as well!! You can apply her method in every aspect of your life. I love it!
