""""Talk To Me: Workplace Conversations That Work"""" follows the adventures of a reluctant hero as he strives to make sense of the nonsense. Join Paul as he discovers how the way we talk affects the way we work. You'll learn breakthrough techniques to end the habits that lead to miscommunication and misunderstanding. Part novel, part how-to manual, """"Talk To Me"""" weaves practical lessons around a story of one man's experiment in helping his team to use the most powerful business tool we will ever have - conversation. The book examines ideas emerging from such studies as positive psychology, social and emotional intelligence, neuroscience, and coaching.

Of particular usefulness are the notes at the end of each chapter, with questions and activities for reinforcing what we've learned as we progress through the book. All of us can do a better job of communicating at home, at work, with friends and family and in our volunteer roles. Talk to Me can help """" - Donna Papacosta, Trafalgar Communications. """"In her new book, Sue Johnston captures a key area that is critical to business and often missed by leaders. At a time when we are experiencing a massive leadership crisis in organizations and everyone is feeling overwhelmed by social tools, this book is a gift to help us get back to basics. Two way-conversations are key to implementing strategy and reaching goals. It's not about the """"meeting in a box"""" or """"frequently asked questions."""" Sue helps us understand that what we need most is to make sure that employees have the information they need to be effective in their jobs. A definite must read for every manager with helpful tips that you can use right away."""" - Ayelet Baron, VP, Strategy and Transformation, Cisco Canada | Talk To Me by Sue Johnston, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
