Hi! Special message from Jessica Chen...


Hi!

There is nothing more exciting and nerve-wracking than launching a new book, yet, here we are. My debut communication book, "Smart, Not Loud: How to Get Noticed at Work for All the Right Reasons" comes out tomorrow.

The reason I wrote this book is because I want to provide a tactical roadmap for those who do not consider themselves the dominate, assertive, or loud-spoken type so they can unlock bigger and more coveted opportunities at work.

As a person raised in a "Quiet Culture" myself, I struggled with feeling confident giving presentations, sharing my ideas in big meetings, and talking about my work without feeling awkward about it. But after teaching more than 2 million people how to communicate with confidence and winning an Emmy-Award as a former TV journalist, I believe "Smart, Not Loud" is THE complete book.

There's no other book out there that has taken this approach of speaking confidently and building credibility at work from a "quieter" and "smarter" perspective. We also know just being "loud" doesn't mean the communications will be impactful. So, this book is where you will learn my best tips on what you can say and how to say it to build a meaningful career.

Many of you have already ordered "Smart, Not Loud," which as a debut author, ordering it during this release period is the best way to support me and the communication work we do. Thank you so much.

Here's where you can order (hardcover, e-book, audio):

Hi everyone! We're officially in the holiday season and one of my favorite topics to share, especially during this time, is how to graciously accept a compliment without downplaying yourself. Whether it's at a work party or at a family gathering, figuring out how to respond is actually a skill you can naturally incorporate so it doesn't come across as awkward or clunky. For example, if someone says, “Great job!” and your response is, “Oh, it was nothing," there's actually a smarter way to...
