The core message of this book is sound: getting people to listen to you requires you listening to them. Effective communication requires work to understand the person you are trying to communicate with. Beyond the core message, this book had a lot of practical tips with something of a laundry list feel to their presentation. I like a lot of the tips, but I sometimes felt the author did not really address the concerns of an average person trying to learn how to listen and communicate better. If you're not like the author -- for whom these techniques seem easy -- it's not clear how you get good at using these techniques. The answer is probably that simple and boring one -- practice -- but the book did not really address or even acknowledge the gap between understanding the techniques and being able to use them. The author often illustrates his techniques with stories that show what an awesome, wonderful, effective, magnificent communicator he is. It gets kind of annoying. Overall, not a bad book and I learned a lot from it, but it wasn't quite good enough to be my go to book for recommending to others. Thumbed through this book again before shelving it this evening and realized that I must raise the rating from 4 to 5 stars: Already this week, I have used, almost subconsciously, two of the techniques outlined and modeled in this book, and both with good effect. One simple, open-ended, fill-in-the-blank question, well-timed, elicited a clear expression of vision from a new client and corrected at least one presumption I had for their interest in engaging a financial / strategic advisor for their business expansion. This technique was common sense, but not something I have used consistently in the past. Another technique helped me change the course of a hyperbole-driven gripe session towards a more constructive end. This is simple, yet heady, life-changing advise. Highly recommend for anyone seeking to improve their communication skills, respond more effectively and consistently to surprises and set-backs, and connect more deeply with family, clients and colleagues. Some interesting concepts here and some framework of use. It does appear somewhat manipulative but that is not the reason I gave it only 4 stars. For me any book that merits 5 stars must have a relatively clear and easy way of implementing the ideas contained within and although this has some actions points at the end of each chapter it would be hard to implement most of these ideas without a lot of practise. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Drawing on his experience as a psychiatrist, business consultant, and coach, author Mark Goulston combines his background with the latest scientific research to help readers turn the "impossible" and "unreachable" people in their lives into allies, devoted customers, loyal colleagues, and lifetime friends. Just Listen does this by providing simple but powerful techniques readers can use to really get through to people. You'll learn how to: make a powerful and positive first impression; listen effectively; make even a total stranger (potential client) feel understood; talk an angry or aggressive person away from an instinctual, unproductive reaction and toward a more rational mindset; and achieve buy-in--the linchpin of all persuasion, negotiation, and sales. Whether they're coworkers, friends, strangers, or enemies, the first make-or-break step in persuading anyone to do anything is getting them to hear you out. With this groundbreaking book, readers will be able to master the fine but critical art of effective communication. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
