This is a great little book full of common sense advice about how to be a better conversationalist. It is not necessarily geared towards getting ahead in the corporate world, but it is helpful. Written by a "human nature expert" Headlee offers practical tips for listening and speaking with meaning. I appreciated the reminders about repeating oneself and using negative language. Even though she did not provide much information I haven't heard before I would like to check out her TED talk. Out of all of the self help books on communication I've read, We Need to Talk was the most enjoyable. ( ) This book feels very ironic. I understand the intent behind it was really good, but it meanders around the subject of conversation (while saying not to do that). Here are the main things I got from it: - Set Expectations - Try to be supportive and empathetic This is communicated much better in other books about conversation. I highly recommend "Crucial Conversations" by Patterson et al. as a more practical book about actually having important conversations. That was fabulous! I was thoroughly engrossed from beginning to end. There's a lot here that makes so much sense, but I'd never *really* thought of it before. I feel like I identified so many of my own flaws in how I converse with others...I'm such a jerk! This has definitely rewired the way I experience and value interactions with other people and will hopefully influence me to become a better friend, family member, and colleague to all those I encounter. Bonus: the audio is superb! Short and sweet--I was hooked and tore through it swiftly. Thanks, Gina, for bringing this to my attention!! aucune critique | ajouter une critique
