About the author
Topher Morrison is the founder of Topher Communications, a firm that specializes in pitch development for business leaders. He is the author of 4 best-selling books and was voted one of the top 10 business speakers in Tampa Bay. He is featured in the award-winning documentaries "The Compass" and "Riches," and his first book Stop Chasing Perfection & Settle for Excellence has been hailed as "the self-help book for people who are sick of self-help books." His 3rd book, Collaboration Economy with John Spencer Ellis has become the goto book for small business owners wanting to take advantage of the new economy. His latest book, The Book on Public Speaking, takes a head-on approach to challenging the status quo of the 1980s motivational speaker styles and instructs the readers on current speaking strategies that make them relevant in today's culture.
Topher's extensive speaking schedule, spanning over 30 years, has taken him throughout the US, UK, Australia, and Singapore and has earned him a global reputation as an expert in mass-communications and influence. Topher has spoken for top execs with American Express, Microsoft & Google, just to name a few.
In contrast to most professional speakers, Topher's shockingly honest, sometimes irreverent, and always down-to-earth approach is surprisingly infectious. His personality and straightforward manner are perfect for the business person who is tired of fleeting success in "self-help sinkholes." He is not afraid to tell it like it is and shatters the myth of achieving overnight success. Instead, Topher speaks to the person who could care less about motivational 'magic wands' and is more focused on getting tangible, proven strategies to become a key person of influence in their company, network, or industry.

The true stories from the author's life are very powerful persuasive teaching stories which deeply affect you on a conscious and unconscious level. Originality and truth working together are often hard to find in self-help books. Highly recommended.
This is the perfect book for people who are new to personal development or those who have been totally overwhelmed by reading too many self-help books! It is very down to earth, shares truths I have not heard articulated so well in any other book and is full of stories that are engaging and real. Unlike so many other books it doesn't get caught up in making outlandish promises. The information really makes you think and, better still, change your behaviour. (Well, it changed mine!)
I am so glad I read it and I can't recommend it highly enough to everyone. I am definitely buying copies for friends and family!!
Speaking as the author of a self-help book on how a global awareness empowers us to make a deep difference in the world, I'm writing from experience when I say that "Settle for Excellence" is a must-read for anyone who cares about their impact in the world. Reading his book makes global sense!
