How you can borrow from the British politician's speaking skills to lift the spirits of managers, employees, and customers worried about today's economy
"The news from France is very bad." That's how British Prime Minister Winston Churchill began a radio broadcast on June 17, 1940, in the darkest hours of World War II.

Churchill's inspirational leadership and extraordinary communication skills rallied the British as they fought for survival.
