Free web seminars around 2 of my favorite books – Crucial Conversations and Crucial Confrontations

Filed under: Books I recommend — admin @ 4:58 pm

Ever read one of those books that really hits you in the gut? These are great reads that will help you in work and life.

Do Any of These Situations Sound Familiar? You might be stuck if you relate to or recognize any of the following situations.

  • When setting goals, your boss gives unreasonable targets but no one dares question them. Later, when the team falls short of the plan, everyone shrugs and says, “I knew we’d never make it.”
  • Your teenage daughter violates her curfew – again. When you reprimand her, she lashes out that you’re too strict and overbearing. You simply wanted to communicate a concern for her safety but now your relationship is damaged.
  • Your boss rarely acknowledges your comments in meetings, doesn’t return your phone calls, and fails to relay vital information. There’s no way you’d surface the issue because doing so would just make you look even more pathetic.
