Great reference
Everyone is faced with tough conversations at work and this book provides practical guides for dealing with bosses, peers, and subordinates. I see where these scripts can easily be adapted to personal conversations as well. The book is organized in a very readable format. Not only are the topics easy to find, but the twists and turns of a specific dialog are diagramed so you can follow the ...

Brilliant truthful and filled with good advice
Love this guy- he tells it like it is. When charismatic company ceos tell us that the corporate experience is not about money, it's about "Love" ; one needs authors like Mark Pollan more than ever . When some VPs are receiving hefty paychecks- is their experience of love sweeter than my own I wonder? It's the individual employees responsibility to get the "love" they deserve..We all use a ...

Not your typical self-help book!
If you've ever wanted to have a conversation with someone on a normal level about undoing negative thinking patterns, this book is about the closest you'll ever get in written form. The style is conversational, pragmatic, and realistic. Kind of like talking to a favorite uncle or aunt who is just "on the mark" about dealing with life. The book focuses on 8 behavior/thought patterns that hinder us ...

It really works
I haven't even read the entire book, but I can attest to the effectiveness of the chapters I did read--and I plan to read the rest and put it into action as well. I read the chapter about pleasing your boss, basically finding out what your boss wants, and doing that, not what your job description says you should do. My boss likes to micromanage (he's admitted as much) so I started seeing him ...

In Transition? Thinking About Quitting? or Retiring?
Better read this book. Whether you are leaving a job to go to another one or thinking about hanging it all up, you ought to spend $10 and get this book. I like a book where the author has actually had "fate" push him into the abyss and he had to figure out how to climb out of the darkness. This author lost his a good job thru no fault of his own, had a bout with TB (and was happy because it ...

Your #1 Reference for People
Take my advice and disregard any bad reviews of this book. First off, it comes with a CD that includes the entire book in PDF with every chapter and "people issue" listed for single-click access. That alone is worth the price! What I like most about the format is how the advice is laid out like a flowchart. It starts with what you might say. Then, depending on the person's response, your next ...

Sound advice for any age.
Written for "baby-boomers," but, most definitely recommended for us younger folks too. I took a chance, liked what I heard, and bought a set for a '25ish' friend; whose nose is always stuck in one financial book or another. He was immediately hooked, and, has already begun to change his way of spending, thinking, and doing. Just last week, he was thinking of buying the paper edition to ...

WORDS OF WISDOM WHEN YOU MOST NEED THEM!
Most of us have been in that embarrassing situation when the brain shifts into high gear but, as we respond to a comment, the words simply do not come from within. Or, even worse, the words we utter come out sounding like the most unintelligient remark ever spoken on the face of the Earth! There is nothing so memorable as "putting your foot in your mouth" and having it get jammed in there. This ...
