5.0

Olivia Fox-Cabane is one of the few authors I really want to meet after reading their book. Partly to see how she takes her own advice, and partly because she sounds like the really cool big sister I never had. (Given the success of her consulting business, I suppose there are CEOs who feel the same way.)

This book had a significant impact on how confident I feel in social situations, even though I don't practice nearly as often as Fox-Cabane recommends. If you've read a lot of cheesy "be more confident" articles online and you're wary of the entire genre, don't worry; The Charisma Myth doesn't have very much in common with those.
