"Does this book deliver on its promise of an effective way through sticky situations, whether 'with your babysitter or your biggest client'? It does." --The New York Times "These talented communicators blend a daunting array of disciplines into highly readable and practical advice." --Booklist "I'm on my third reading. Half the pages are dog-eared. This is a mind-bogglingly powerful book. For life." --Tom Peters "A user-friendly guide to mastering the talks we dread . . . a keeper." --Fast Company   "Emotional intelligence applied to life's toughest moments." --Daniel Goleman, bestselling author of Working with Emotional Intelligence "The only people who shouldn't read Difficult Conversations are those who never work with people, anywhere." --Peter M. Senge, bestselling author of The Fifth Discipline "How do you confront your ex-spouse who's late picking up the kids? How do you tell a client their project took longer than expected and the bill is twice as high? How do you say 'I'm sorry'? Start by picking up Difficult Conversations ." --Citizen " Difficult Conversations will be appreciated by readers who wish to improve oral communication in all aspects of their daily lives." --Library Journal "Stone, Patton, and Heen illustrate their points with anecdotes, scripted conversations and familiar examples in a clear, easy-to-browse format." --Publishers Weekly "The central insights of Difficult Conversations so resonate with common sense that it is easy to overlook just how remarkable of a book it is . . . a must-read." --Harvard Negotiation Law Review "Examples more clear-headed and advice more precise than we've seen before." --Dallas Morning News "Stone, Patton, and Heen have written an extremely clear and unpretentious exposition of how to develop effective communication skills and a guide to achieving openness and constructive outcomes in dialogue . . . this book is, and probably for some time to come will be definitive." --Southern Communication Journal

    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.

  • READ NOW; this book is a game changer

    This should be required reading for anyone who speaks and/or has interpersonal relationships. I read it slowly and re-read many parts, to ensure I digested everything and found opportunities to practice the new skills/strategies.
