FIVE STARS: The Communication Secrets To Get From Good To Great
IDEAS DON’T SELL THEMSELVES. As the forces of globalization, automation, and artificial intelligence combine to disrupt every field, having a good idea isn’t good enough. Mastering the ancient art of persuasion is the key to standing out, getting ahead, and achieving greatness in the modern world. Communication is no longer a “soft” skill—it is the human edge that will make you unstoppable, irresistible, and irreplaceable, earning you that perfect rating, that fifth star. In Five Stars, Carmine Gallo breaks down Aristotle’s ancient formula of persuasion to inspire contemporary audiences. As the nature of work changes and technology carries things across the globe in a moment, communication skills become more valuable—not less. When people express their ideas effectively, they’re more likely to win dream jobs, sell products, build brands, and trigger movements. Gallo interviews neuroscientists, economists, and leaders, from NASA astronauts to Navy SEALS. His conversations with billionaires who built companies like Google, Nike, and Airbnb reveal how great leaders captivate our imaginations and ignite our dreams. Gallo will help you unlock your innate emotional and social skills, develop your public speaking talent to communicate your ideas with confidence, and build empathy with your listeners.
