THE FULLY REVISED AND UPDATED INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
What if charisma could be taught?
Most people believe the myth that charisma is an inborn quality – you either have it, or you don’t. In reality, charisma is a skill. One that can be learned, developed and perfected.
Drawing on techniques originally developed for Harvard and MIT, The Charisma Myth offers a captivating blend of practical tools, new science and stories uncovering the nuances of charisma.
This revised and updated edition is packed with new insights and cutting-edge science, including TWO BRAND NEW CHAPTERS covering topics such as neurodivergence and being charismatic online.

This may say its about charisma, which it covers deeply, though it is so much more, due to the depths of what makes charisma & how it can also make your life better 🙂.
Even if you are not into the idea of charisma this book genuinely is a great self help book in its own merit & has so many gems in it 💎.
It has such a simple and empowering model for charisma (presence, power & warmth) which can be broken down into different types of charisma. It goes into the pros and cons of each type of charisma, what contexts each can be most appropriate & examples of famous people who have such types of charisma in the world, which gives great references 🌍.
One unique thing I found about this book is that it covers neurodivergence in relation to charisma which is wonderful 🧠.
One of my favourite things about the book is that at the end of the book it has a summary of all the chapters and what it covered & the exercises. This in itself is fantastic as a re-study of the book, which I wish others did more 👍.
The narrator has a wonderful voice & does a great job & you can tell allot of love went into this book ❤️.
