For working professionals who freeze in meetings, watch colleagues take credit for their ideas, and keep hearing "be more visible" in performance reviews with no real way to do it.

You don't have a confidence problem. You have a preparation problem.

The people who get heard aren't braver than you. They're using verbal patterns they've said a thousand times — phrases their mouths know before their brains finish thinking. You're composing in real time while everyone watches. They're not.

How to Speak Up in Meetings, by bestselling author Nathan Soren, gives you the exact words for the eight moments where most people freeze — adapted across the four meeting types you actually attend.

Inside this audiobook:

- Why "be more confident" is the wrong advice

- The Eight Meeting Moments: scripts for breaking in, claiming an idea before someone takes credit, disagreeing without damage, recovering after being talked over, pushing back, and closing with a clear next step

- The Four Meeting Types: how every script adapts for status updates, decisions, brainstorms, and one-on-ones

- The 15-Second Rule for entering a conversation without interrupting

- The naming-and-parking move for protecting your ideas

Includes a free companion e-book — the full text in PDF form — so you can pull up the script before any meeting.

No motivational filler. Just a script library and four or five reps until your mouth knows the words.

Perfect for listeners of Crucial Conversations, Captivate, and Radical Candor.

Stop replaying meetings in the car. Start walking in already knowing what to say.
