Don’t delay – study this book, action this and lead the room powerfully." -- Christina Guidotti, CEO, Leading Women

"We don’t need more eloquent speakers; we need more authentic communicators. We need to focus more on our character and content than on our form and delivery. Thank you, Shane, for providing a tool to encourage that." -- Daniel Flynn, Co-founder Thankyou and best-selling author of Chapter One

About the Author

Shane Hatton has spent his career in the business of people. From his early days in event management, recruiting and mobilising large volunteer teams for community events, he has navigated the challenges of leading at scale. Knowing how difficult it can be to get one on one with everyone, he has learned the value of leveraging a communication platform to build trust and rally people around a common vision. From more than a decade of consulting and in-house experience in marketing and communications he has learned the importance of effective messaging to not only be heard but remembered. Shane also spent seven years as a minister. During this time, he was leading and mobilising volunteers in one of Australia’s fastest growing churches and responsible for building and nurturing the health, growth and culture of a rapidly expanding campus. This experience at the intersection of people, communication and leadership, along with his studies in business and psychology, laid the foundation for his work today as a trainer, mentor and speaker to leaders and teams. A self-described ‘charismatic introvert’, Shane has learned how to face the fear of public speaking and embrace the potential of platform leadership. www.shanemhatton.com
