498: How to Win with Clarity-Fueled Communications with Steve Woodruff

I’ve yet to meet my guest today in person, but we live less than 30 minutes from one another. I think I need to work harder at changing that soon. His name is Steve Woodruff, and this will make his second appearance on the podcast; his first being about five years ago in Episode #243. Steve’s new book, released just last week, is called The Point: How to Win With Clarity-Fueled Communications. Clarity-fueled communications, Steve says, is the practice of using the fewest words to make the biggest impact. His book unveils how the overloaded human brain wants information packaged, and how to craft brain-friendly messages that break through the noise. From email to sales pitches, from workshops to resumes, Steve’s Clarity Fuel Formula is the universal recipe for communications success. The Point includes four simple actions and eight compelling shortcuts that can be used by anyone to get to the point and get others on the same page.
