About: Some people are born leaders, blessed with the innate abilitiy to motivate, inspire and lead. The rest of us require a system to achieve those same goals through the spoken word. That's what you'll find in this book-the proven S3P3 System that resulted in President Ronald Reagan describing Larry Tracy as 'An extraordinarily effective speaker.' He's a retired U.S. Army colonel, with many of his assignments focused on speaking and briefing. In one, he was the Senior Intelligence Briefer to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The book cover says the S3P3 System is 'proven.' How can such a claim be made? Because if he was ineffective in that and other high-level assignments, he would have been fired. The S3P3 System worked for him, and it will work for you.

About: Improving the quality of employee's lives is one of the best things a business can do for their employees and their business. Believe it or not, getting rid of physical and digital clutter is one of the more effective actions a business leader can take to categorically increase profits and improve the quality of the lives of their employees. Unquestionably, clutter is bad for business. It not only slows your employees down, it weighs them down. They are less productive than they would like to be, and as a result, less happy than they would like to be. Over time, this emotional baggage not only costs businesses a lot of money, but hurts employees in just about every way, physically, emotionally, and psychologically. They tend to feel tired, overwhelmed and constantly stressed out.
