Difficult Conversations Just for Women: Kill the Anxiety, Get What You Want

Bringing over 30 years of combined experience in the field of motivating and teaching women to excel in business, coauthors Santiago and Harrison craft a smart and necessary message for female readers who lack confidence. The authors’ advice is clear and succinct: Speak up for yourself. If someone does something to offend you, say so, regardless of how much you would rather just avoid the topic. From the very first chapter, readers will know that they have stumbled onto something valuable, beginning with the authors’ advice about the importance of not avoiding difficult conversations aimed at changing another person’s behavior. The majority of the book is devoted to explaining how best to have these unpleasant talks. The straightforward book delivers an effective message that will benefit many. Most notable is the section in which Santiago and Harrison speak candidly about their experiences with the silent treatment and make an excellent argument about why this passive-aggressive tactic almost always backfires. Any woman who picks up this book will feel inspired, upon reaching its end, to courageously speak her mind. [em](BookLife) [/em]
