According to The Book of Lists, the fear of public speaking ranks number one in the minds if the majority of people. Far above the fear of death and disease, comes the fear of standing in front of a crowd. Joel Wiener noted author and public speaker wants to help people overcome that fear.

"The biggest fear is public speaking, with 15 percent of America experiencing a dramatic fear of it,"said  Dr. Micheal Telch of the Laboratory for the Study of Anxiety Disorders (LSAD) in the department of Psychology at The University of Texas at Austin. "People have had to turn down jobs, and certainly students have dropped classes because of it." Regardless of your occupation, your success depends a great deal upon your ability to communicate effectively! Whether you're running a meeting, selling a product, making a presentation, motivating co-workers or just communicating one- on-one with others, you'll get far better results if you can speak persuasively, smoothly and intelligently.
