Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Don't turn the other cheek and fume quietly; know what to say when someone throws out the snide backhanded "compliment," subtle insult, cruel criticism, or outright verbal blow. Inside these pages is an arsenal of tools for fending off that attack and neutralizing the harm spiteful words inflict. Learn to identify modes of verbal assault, such as laying blame, and to recognize when someone is about to launch a linguistic strike and the motivation behind it. Sample scripts prevent you from getting tongue-tied, and a progress journal helps you use voice and body language for maximum effect. Find out how to handle the eight most common types of verbal violence, and redirect and defuse potential verbal confrontations so skillfully that they rarely happen. Special suggestions are included for college students, men, and women, and for handling emergency situations such as an angry crowd.

Book excerpt: "Have you ever worked hard to put together a business strategy or innovative new plan, and then worked hard to explain it to those around you - only to discover, too late, that what everyone heard you say was very different from what you're sure you said? If so, you're one of millions of business professionals who may be far more successful at coming up with good ideas than in communicating them to others." "Fortunately, this groundbreaking book can change all that! In it, the internationally acclaimed author of The Gentle Art of Verbal Self-Defense series takes the same powerful techniques that have already helped more than 800,000 people communicate more positively and effectively in their personal lives, and shows you how to apply them to the workplace." "Going far beyond the platitudes about communication generally found in business books - such as "Be clear" and "Don't bore your audience" - Suzette Haden Elgin shows you how to get other people to feel the same commitment and passion for your strategy that you feel. Each chapter presents a real-life business scenario in which a proposal that is being presented is not going over well. The author analyzes the scenario to explain what went wrong, and why. (There may be more than one person at fault in each scenario.) Dr. Elgin then replays the situation using proven remedies that yield understanding and commitment."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
