Critics Review
Charisma is not a gift, it’s a tool. Olivia Fox Cabane makes a big promise with this book and delivers on it * Seth Godin *
Until I encountered Olivia Fox Cabane, I’d naively believed charisma was an intangible, magical aura…a couple of hours can transform a reasonably personable person into someone magnetic * The Sunday Telegraph *
If you are interested in increasing your ability to be charismatic, this book will give you direct skills to use * Psychology Today *
An easy read, effectively integrating stories and research, strategies and applications, techniques and practices * New York Journal of Books *
Engaging, clear, and chock-full of wisdom, practical recommendations, and uncommonly good sense * Stephen Kosslyn, director, Center for Study of Behavioral Sciences at Stanford *
Cabane has done us a big favor. She’s woven solid science and engaging narrative into an instructive treatment of the role of charisma in leadership-a topic that (until now) we only poorly understood
