—Stephen R. Howe, Jr., US Chairman and Americas Managing Partner, Ernst & Young

"Effective communication is absolutely critical to successful leadership. Sullivan reminds us that when we're communicating, audiences are listening to hear one thing: what does this mean for me? Simply Said is a candid guide to improve our ability to connect with others, and as a result, improve our impact as communicators and leaders."

"Jay Sullivan's approach to communication—and the virtues of this book—extend well beyond how to speak and write more clearly. Embedded within is a deeper philosophy of leadership rooted in attentiveness to others that is both appealing and compelling. This book is a valuable resource to those who are, or aspire to be, leaders."
—Eduardo M. Peñalver, Allan R. Tessler Dean and Professor of Law, Cornell Law School

"Adhering to the mantra of the Simply Said title, I have just one piece of advice: Read this book! You will learn how to communicate better by focusing less on yourself and more on others. The world would be a much better place if we would all talk less and listen more."
