I found this book long winded. It had too many anologies and proverbs and not enough plain english. If you can see through all thoses quotes there is actually somthing to be learnt.
Format:Paperback
A good overview for anyone who has to think laterally about how we communicate and how important it is. There are of course many more ways to communicate than we think, and this book helps us understand not only their importance, but the overall effect of good communication, and of course, bad.

Not Fashion but Common Sence
10 Aug 2000
Format:Paperback
Too often management writers ride the waves of fashion. Not so with John Adair. John Adair is an unsung Guru of Leadership and communication in organizations. This book on effective communication avoids buzz words and fads. It concentrates on simply getting the message across. I sure you have all experienced recieving a memo that had more words than a dictionary. Or a report that had been obviously written with the intention of impressing the reader with the writers intelligence rather than to pass on information. This book covers all aspects of communicating in the work place from verbal communication, public speaking and meetings. Recommended highly.
