Part 1 has a self-test for evaluating your current skills and also includes
a toolkit for improving your overall communication at work. Part 2 lists

harmful) words, phrases, body-language strategies and other techniques that
can help you be a better communicator at work. --Howard Rothman

Managing Your Mouth : An Owner's Manual... |
Reviewer: A reader
from Roseville, CA United States
A great book on managing one of our best assets! As a manager, I found the
book beneficial as it addresses the ramifications of poor communication. It
addresses using body language combined with speech and/or silence.
Considering "words and movement are the basis of communication" between
co-workers, this book is essential in reminding all of us the joys of having
and working with individuals who have "a better managed mouth".

Empire-Building by Writing and Speaking... |
If you know something that
others will pay to know, that is the core. Not only do you strengthen that
unique element of knowledge, you redefine and repackage that expanded core
by the most appropriate of the many means
of information dissemination: articles, a
book, talks, speeches, seminars, audio and/or video tapes, a newsletter,
consulting, and more...
By sharing needed information one way it
leads to sharing it by others, and the collective sharing further identifies
you as the person, the perceived expert, to be sought for even further help,
information, or direction in that area of inquiry.
Empire-Building By Writing And Speaking
takes you through the process, from identifying the core knowledge to
putting all of the means in motion.

People-Reading: How We Control Others, |
Both theoretical and
practical, this book discusses the motivations behind peoples' manipulative
behavior, both conscious and unconscious. It offers some advice for
controlling or changing this behavior in others and in ourselves. Basically,
people develop manipulative behaviors because these behaviors offer some
kind of psychological reward. The way to undo these manipulations is to
refuse to respond in such a way as to deny the reward that is expected. The
book offers ways to do this, such as listening objectively, delivering a
surprising response, holding back approval, etc. Also discusses such issues
as blaming, discordance, marriage and divorce, children, alcoholism, etc.
There are no ground-breaking ideas here, but the book accomplishes its aims
in a very clear and accessible fashion, without psychological jargon. |
I Know What You're Thinking: |
A practical and savvy guide
for gleaning what people are really thinking by understanding the codes of
communication –– verbal, facial, body language, and speech. This book helps
readers fend off negative people and attract positive people."
––Gavin de Becker, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Gift of Fear
and Fear Less |
