Abstract

Videos such as "Toyoshima Shinsaku's TV Tokyo World Politics" and "Toyoshima Shinsaku's TV Tokyo Economic News Academy" have garnered over 200 million views on YouTube alone. How is it that newscaster Toyoshima Shinsaku is able to convey complex topics so clearly?

He was slow to understand things and struggled to keep up with his peers in academics... How did a boy with such troubles end up explaining world affairs and economic information on television?

Toyoshima Shinsaku, the main newscaster for TV Tokyo's "WBS (World Business Satellite)," thoroughly explains, from the basics to applied techniques, how to communicate your thoughts and information to others in an easy-to-understand manner and how to obtain more information more accurately from others, based on past failures and bitter experiences.

This book introduces "22 Golden Rules" for acquiring practical and effective communication skills that can be used in any situation, from meetings and presentations to interviews and everyday conversations.
