Brag!: The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn without Blowing It (9780446692786): Peggy Klaus: Books. Brag! is a whip smart tool kit--one that tampers with our beliefs about humility by defining bragging as an act of authenticity. Peggy Klaus, a Fortune 500 communication coach, sharpened her strategies in Hollywood, the bragging capitol of the world, where she learned the art of tooting your horn, without blowing it. To brag is to talk about your best self with pride and passion in a conversational manner. explains Klaus. She includes a snappy Bragging Dictionary with highly practical techniques including instructions for the Bragalogue, a brief memorable elevator pitch and a Brag bag, the collection of your greatest hits with colorful details that can be easily accessed. Bragging rights and responsibilities are surveyed in a variety of situations: the co-worker who takes credit, techno-bragging online, performance reviews, job interviews and working a room. Klaus peppers her points with examples from her coaching sessions and seminars, sample dialogues and self-assessments. Although several examples may seem too studied, Klaus has much to brag about. This is a book that will change the way you think about the slippery skill of selling yourself. --Barbara Mackoff
