SPEAK EASY BOOK

What if every conversation you had was a great one?

Welcome to Speak Easy. Unlike prohibition-era speakeasies―underground bars with secret knocks, where people spoke quietly to avoid detection―there’s no bathtub gin here. But inside these covers you’ll find some of the best-kept secrets of elite interviewers and conversationalists.

Your host, Lou Diamond, is a storyteller, podcaster, and professional speaker who has studied how content can connect and engage audiences.

Discover the mindset you should strive to be in before, during, and after you have a conversation, and how to maximize and continue a great one. Learn how to steer a conversation to connect with prospects; engage with partners, clients and colleagues; and win in business and in life.
