The Charisma Myth
Summary
What if charisma could be taught? For the first time, science and technology have taken charisma apart, figured it out and turned it into an applied science: In controlled laboratory experiments, researchers could raise or lower people's level of charisma as if they were turning a dial. What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab, and every person you meet, a chance to experiment. The Charisma Myth is a mix of fun stories, sound science, and practical tools. Cabane takes a hard scientific approach to a heretofore mystical topic, covering what charisma actually is, how it is learned, what its side effects are, and how to handle them. Please note: The accompanying workbook for this title is available at AskOlivia.com/book/exercises/.

The Net and the Butterfly
Summary
In The Charisma Myth, Olivia Fox Cabane offered a groundbreaking approach to becoming more charismatic. Now she teams up with Judah Pollack to reveal how anyone can train their brain to have more eureka insights. The creative mode in your brain is like a butterfly. It's beautiful and erratic, hard to catch, and highly valued as a result. If you want to capture it, you need a net. Enter the executive mode, the task-oriented network in your brain that helps you tie your shoes, run a meeting, or pitch a client. To succeed, you need both modes to work together - your inner butterfly to be active and free, but your inner net to be ready to spring at the right time and create that "aha!" moment. But is there any way to trigger these insights, beyond dumb luck? Thanks to recent neuroscience discoveries, we can now explain these breakthrough moments - and also induce them through a series of specific practices. It turns out there's a hidden pattern to all these seemingly random breakthrough ideas. From Achimedes' iconic moment in the bathtub to designer Adam Cheyer's idea for Siri, accidental breakthroughs throughout history share a common origin story. In this audiobook, you will learn to master the skills that will transform your brain into a consistent generator of insights. Drawing on their extensive coaching and training practice with top Silicon Valley firms, Cabane and Pollack provide a step-by-step process for accessing the part of the brain that produces breakthroughs and systematically removing internal blocks. Their tactics range from simple to zany, such as: Imagine an alternate universe where gravity doesn't exist, and the social and legal rules that govern it Map Disney's Pocahontas story onto James Cameron's Avatar Rid yourself of impostor syndrome through mental exercises Literally change your perspective by climbing a tree Stimulate your butterfly mode by watching a foreign film without subtitles By trying the exercises in this audiobook, listeners will emerge with a powerful new capacity for breakthrough thinking.

Das Charisma Geheimnis
Summary
Charisma ist keine naturgegebene Eigenschaft, die man hat oder eben nicht. Charisma kann man sich aber aneignen - und man kann damit sein Leben von Grund auf verändern. Olivia Fox Cabane erklärt die grundlegenden Komponenten, aus denen sich Charisma zusammensetzt, und erläutert im Detail, wie man sich mit Worten, Gesten und bestimmter Mimik präsentiert, um zum geschätzten und beachteten Gesprächspartner, Kollegen oder Chef zu werden. Seit über zehn Jahren hat sie Methoden aus der Verhaltensforschung analysiert und für ihr Coaching getestet. Herausgekommen ist ein effektives und praxiserprobtes Training, in dem sie unter anderem verrät: wie man im Gespräch Selbstsicherheit signalisiert, wie man besonders intelligent und aufmerk-sam wirkt, wie man ohne Angst in ein konfliktbeladenes Gespräch geht. Olivia Fox Cabane bringt jedem Menschen bei, charismatisch zu sein, egal, ob derjenige bereits ein extrovertierter Entertainer oder eher ein schüchterner Einzelgänger ist.
