Chief Secretary V. Irai Anbu, who will be demitting office on Friday, will be coming out with a book on the art of public speaking shortly.
“It is about how to speak and what to speak. From inter-personal conversations to performances during interviews for employment to making speeches at public platforms, you will find everything,” says Mr. Irai Anbu. He finished writing the manuscript well before he became Chief Secretary.
This will be one of a host of books that he had authored in the areas of personality development and positive thinking. Asked about any specific assignment that he is going to take up after retirement, the civil servant, who has put in 35 years of service, replies that “for the time being, I am going to relax a bit”.
