À propos de cet audio

Number-one New York Times best seller

Former congressman and prosecutor Trey Gowdy teaches you how to effectively communicate and persuade on the issues that matter most to you, drawing on his experience in the courtroom and the halls of Congress.

“A must-read for people who want to learn how best to succeed.” (Dana Perino, Fox News host and best-selling author of Everything Will Be Okay)

You do not need to be in a courtroom to advocate for others. You do not need to be in Congress to champion a cause. From the boardroom to the kitchen table, opportunities to make your case abound, and Doesn’t Hurt to Ask shows you how to seize them. By blending gripping case studies from nearly two decades in a courtroom and four terms in national politics with personal stories and practical advice, Trey Gowdy walks you through the tools and the mindset needed to effectively communicate your message.

Along the way, Gowdy reflects on the moments in his life when he learned the most about how to argue and convince. He recounts his missteps during his first murder trial, the conversation that changed his view on criminal justice reform, and what he learned while questioning James Comey and Secretary Hillary Clinton.

Sharing the techniques he perfected advocating in law and politics, Gowdy helps you identify your objective, understand your personal jury, and engage in the art of questioning so you can be heard, be understood, and, ultimately, move others. Whether it’s getting a boss to take a chance on your idea, convincing someone to support your cause, or urging a child to invest more effort in an important task, movement requires persuasion. Doesn’t Hurt to Ask shows you how to persuade, no matter the jury and no matter the cause.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Gowdy was tough when he was a federal prosecutor, and he drew on that experience when interrogating individuals who appeared before Congress, during his tenure as a South Carolina representative. He possesses an uncanny ability to ask the right questions to pull out the truth from those on Capitol Hill - no easy feat. Doesn’t Hurt to Ask demonstrates how to ask questions to move people and get the answers you need to make decisions and become a stronger communicator.” (Sean Hannity, nationally syndicated radio and TV host and best-selling author of Live Free or Die)

“If I could have anyone in the world argue my case, it would be Trey Gowdy - the person I trust the most to make common sense. Whether it’s made on a football field or in a courtroom, a good argument is a good argument, no matter the authority. In Doesn’t Hurt to Ask, Gowdy is the authority.” (Lou Holtz, hall of fame coach and best-selling author of Wins, Losses, and Lessons)

“Gowdy, one of our finest courtroom lawyers, has written a very fine book on the art of persuasion. In Doesn’t Hurt to Ask, you’ll learn a lot about the importance of listening to evidence, using words with precision, and, above all, asking good questions. You’ll also learn some things about being a better person. In the end, this is a book about finding a purpose bigger than yourself, and then moving others toward that purpose with you.” (William J. Bennett, best-selling author of The Book of Virtues)

It was awesome to hear the story of Trey Gowdy. I thought the beginning of the book was the most interesting. Hearing about how Trey grew up and some his struggles as a prosecutor were interesting.

For a book on persuasion and communication, they're some good tips here.

Also, for those that read the book, Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss, and liked it, you'll like this book as well.

Good Audiobook!

I picked this book as it was on the NYT best sellers list having absolutely no idea what it was about. I did not know who Trey Gowdy was. When I discovered he was republican, all my biases emerged and I was ready to start judging. However, as I kept listening, I realized how narrow and ignorant my view of life, people and politics was. I learned how compassionate, down to earth, and sensible this person is. His message is profound and wise. I learned how courageous one needs to ask questions first to ourselves and then to others, having taken the time to get the facts, see what our perspective of the issue is and, most importantly, being willing to be open-minded and persuadable. I felt this book to be genuine and written from the heart. I highly recommend it.

A must read

Best read I’ve had in a long time, finished it in a day! It is a captivating look into an intelligent mind and the art of using questions to further your argument in a debate. Ps. I also appreciated finding out I m not the only one who has discussions with himself!

Best book I’ve read in a long while!
