I removed extensive promotionalism from this, but I am not sure of notability . One moderately successful book' the references are either her own web site or her own PR or columns she has written. DGG ( talk ) 22:52, 10 August 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Delete Cabane is not a notable writer. We do not have enough sources about her to pass GNG. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 23:26, 10 August 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete at best as I concur, there's no actual substance, although WorldCat lists 720 total and the highest holdings for that are 520. Still questionable for better sourcing though. SwisterTwister talk 23:38, 10 August 2016 (UTC) reply
  • Delete vote by Olivia Fox Cabane Actually folks, I tried to delete EVERYTHING under “publications” because I truly couldn’t see the relevance. It was re-added within minutes. Go figure! Frankly, if the page is up at all, the only thing truly worth mentioning is the model of charisma proposed in The Charisma Myth: it’s the one piece of IP I can claim / have offered. I honestly don’t see the relevance of any of the rest of it... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:8B20:D280:7D0B:B0A8:BD1F:C766 ( talk) 15:35, 11 August 2016 (UTC) reply

  • Keep, meets WP:GNG, her book The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism almost meets WP:NBOOK with reviews found in New York Journal of Books - "Ms. Cabane’s style reflects the packaging of a collection of insights and techniques from multiple disciplines, rather than the treatise of a researcher who has created and pioneered the discipline herself. Charisma Myth is an easy read, effectively integrating stories and research, strategies and applications, techniques and practices." [1], and Psychology Today - "The Charisma Myth is a book that will be of value to professionals and practitioners who rely on effective communication in order to be successful in their work. Fox Cabane's distinct writing style has the ability to motivate the reader into believing it is possible to increase and create an individual charismatic style. She makes reading each chapter both informational and fun." [2], Fox-Cabane has been interviewed in/discussed by The Economist - "In a conversation with The Economist, Ms Cabane talks about quantifying charm, Oprah's magnetism and the reason why charisma has so long been ignored as a topic of scientific study (hint: it has to do with Hitler)." [3], Daily Mail(online) - "The £9.99 paperback (The Charisma Myth) is certainly more accessible than most aspects of Olivia’s work: the majority of her one-on-one coaching is with uber-successful businesspeople ... In person, she is confident, commanding, authoritative and polite, but, I must say, not brimming with what I would think of as traditional warmth or crackling with irresistibility – in fact, she seems slightly aloof. ‘I am, by nature, a socially inept, awkward introvert,’ she freely admits. ‘I hate hubbub; I can’t stand being on 5th Avenue.’" [4], The Telegraph - "Charisma: who has it, and how to get it .. But, as Fox Cabane points out in her new book The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism, it was also the difference between Marilyn Monroe and her alter-ego Norma Jean Baker. .. Dr Nicole Gehl, a psychotherapist, is cynical, suggesting that what Fox Cabane offers is little more than a gimmick." [5], The Wall Street Journal - How I ... Changed My Youthful Look .. Now 30 and established in her business, Ms. Fox Cabane isn't so concerned about her age. "Now I have the reputation and I have track record to prove my value," she says. "People don't care about how old I am." " [6], Daily News - "Getting paid for public speaking .. It's not just former Presidents and talkative celebs who cash in on the lecture circuit — everyday New Yorkers with specialized knowledge and a passion for sharing it are getting paid to talk, too. .. Your Money asked three New Yorkers who get paid to give speeches to share some secrets. ... Olivia Fox Cabane Six years after leaving Paris for New York, Olivia Fox Cabane, 29, pulls in speaking fees of $8,000 to $10,000 and coaches rising stars and senior executives. Her topic? Charisma.
