Description

Are Your Communication Skills Holding You Back from the Success You Deserve?Have you ever walked away from a conversation, replaying it in your head, knowing you said the wrong thing? Maybe you missed out on a promotion, stumbled through an important interview, or even let a promising relationship slip away. The frustrating truth is, most of us aren’t aware that what we say—and how we say it—can either open doors or close them. Communication is much more than just words.

  • Great read to begin your journey to effective communication success!
I really enjoy reading this book. I got great information from it and I'm already reading another one of your books. Thanks for being a great author.

  • Good for Beginner and Advanced Communicators
As a person looking to communicate better in a wider variety of situations, this book was a good read. It was jammed packed with information and references to research. I particularly found helpful - learning the filters people see reality through. It really explained how people can have the same data and come up with different conclusions PLUS what to do about it. - the difficult people chapter. This helped me see that I was actually encouraging other people's bad behavior by not being assertive enough, taking it to personally, or caving for peace. - the networking chapter. The tips for how to get in and out of conversations was great. The book also expelled a lot of myths about communication such as a person is lying if they look to your left and that you need to talk a lot to be liked. I have been reading the correlating sections of this book every time I have a social event and I have seen improvement. This book will definitely stay at my desk. ... show more

  • Knowledge is power
Since communication face to face is being a lost art due to social media. I wanted a book that would allow me to keep old school skills while also learning the new ones.

  • Yes I would recommend to a friend
Just finished the book and all in all it was a good read! Some of the chapters felt like review or “common sense”. BUT I found plenty of chapters to be incredibly insightful and practical. Something I look for in the books I read is how practical the teachings can be in our day to day lives. I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of actionable advice given within this book. Finally, YES. Yes I would recommend this quick read to anyone and everyone. A few of the chapters I will even go back and review from time to time. ... show more

  • Very long and wordy.
The tips the author gave were okay. But I thought they were kind of manipulative to use on your working colleagues. The book could easily been reduced to about 50 pages. Putting on a happy face is obvious if you are a sincerely happy person. Wishing people a great day is also common curtesy. Delving into someone’s personal problems is not. Almost everyone wears some sort of mask for protection. I would strongly suggest, it is better to be an attentive, sincere listener, than to simply nod in agreement to work challenges. That way, you could bear the burdens of a difficult work environment, without regrets. Always be sincere with everyone. Your sincerity should reap great rewards, in your home life and hopefully someday, in your workplace. ... show more

  • From Need to Want...
When I first purchased this book, it was because I had a need to learn to communicate better. I expected the read to be boring, but knew it had to be done. As I began reading, that need soon turned to a want. I wanted to read and learn more about communicating. Ian, your writing, the way you explained the different ways to communicate, made it easy to read and learn. I also learned a lot about myself and was able to apply these learnings instantly upon reading them. I look forward to reading more of your books. Thank you! ... show more

  • Stellar book!
I love this book! My son (16) and I read this book. I recommend this book to anyone who cares about how they communicate! I was surprised at the multitude of aspects there are in how we effectively or not so effectively communicate. The book is excellently well written, very easy to read, incredibly educational as well as entertaining and quite funny a lot of the time! It’s a great book; one of my favorite books! ... show more
