Portfolio Penguin The Communication Book: 44 ideas for Better Conversations Everyday

The internationally bestselling duo Mikael Krogerus and
Roman Tshappeler have tested the 44 most important communication theories –
from Aristotle’s thoughts on presenting to Proust on asking questions to the
Harvard Negotiation Project- for their practicality in daily business life. In
The Communication Book they distil them into single volume that in their
winning way turns seemingly difficult ideas into clear and entertaining
diagrams.

From running better meetings and improving the conversations
in your head to brushing up on your listening skills and small talk, the pair
masterfully fuse theoretical knowledge and business advice with humour and
practicality. With sections on work, the self, relationships and language, they
show that we can improve not only what we communicate, but how we do so.

Whether you’re a CEO or starting out – or want to improve
your relationship at home – this smartly illustrated and compact guide will
improve your communication skills and help you to form meaningful connections
at work, while smiling too.
