Italian Edition of Voice-Training Book Loses Nothing in Translation

One of the world’s most highly rated voice-training books is now available in Italian. Voice Power: Using Your Voice to Captivate, Persuade, and Command Attention (AMACOM, NY) by Renee Grant-Williams. is packed with many tips on practical ways to use your voice to positively affect the outcome of sales meetings, speeches, negotiations, and more – even how to leave a more memorable and productive voice mail message.

“The trade secrets in Voice Power apply universally, whether you speak Italian, English or Urdu,” said Grant-Williams, a leading voice coach and communication skills expert. “From client meetings to interactions with co-workers and important telephone conversations, often it’s not just what you say, but how you say it that makes the difference. There are no language barriers when it comes to the basic voice-training techniques I offer in Voice Power.”

“The astute Italian business person is always looking for ways to improve their position during speeches and negotiations,” said Danilo Sangiovanni, publisher at Sangioivanni’s, Milan, emphasizing the high level of interest in Voice Power from business leaders, sales representatives and consultants in Italy.

“The Italians are savvy business people,” says Grant-Williams. “They seem to see an opportunity in this Italian translation of Voice Power to enhance the effectiveness of their already-successful business transactions.”

“Your voice is an immensely powerful tool if you use it properly,” says Grant-Williams. “In today’s competitive, global business climate, the difference between people simply hearing your thoughts and actually remembering and acting on them, is the result of having a dynamic, evocative voice – one that ensnares the listener the way a Broadway star would captivate an audience.”

The Italian edition of Voice Power is titled Il Potere Della Voce and is published by Sangiovanni’s, Milan. It may be ordered from Amazon.co.it. The English edition is published by AMACOM Books, New York and is available on Amazon.com and at leading book stores.
