About this listen

An inspiring program full of essential advice for spotlight lovers and wallflowers alike that will teach listeners how to bring any crowd to its feet

Every day there are moments when you must persuade, inform, and motivate others effectively. Each of those moments requires you, in some way, to play a role, to heighten the impact of your words, and to manage your emotions and nerves. Every interaction is a performance, whether you're speaking up in a meeting, pitching a client, or walking into a job interview.

In Steal the Show, New York Times bestselling author Michael Port draws on his experience as an actor and as a highly successful corporate speaker and trainer to teach listeners how to make the most of every presentation and interaction. He demonstrates how the methods of successful actors can help you connect with, inspire, and persuade any audience. His key strategies for commanding an audience's attention include developing a clear focus for every performance, making sure you engage with your listeners, and finding the best role for yourself in order to convey your message with maximum impact.

Michael Port is one of the most in-demand corporate speakers working today. His presentations are always powerful, engaging, and inspirational. And yes, audiences always give him a standing ovation.

Actionable and inspiring

Great read and actionable from the first minute.

A true pleasure to listen to Michael’s voice and a study in its own right - I learned a lot from that.

I can’t wait to bring these ninja tools to the stage!

Thank you so much Michael 🙏

Valuable confidence building info

The narrator had just the right energy to keep me interested even when the book became a bit redundant. I definitely picked up a few points on leading a conversation or presentation. I'd recommend others to listen to this book as part their everyday soft skills development.

Nothing to learn here

Lacks to convey any meaningful learnings on the topic. Writing style is too wordy and the case stories are uninspiring. After two hours of listening, I dropped this title and wrote this review to lower the average rating to something more close to that it should be
