Book Reviews of Fierce Conversations: Achieving Success at Work and in Life One Conversation at a Time
Book Review: A Toss Up - Some Good, Some Bad
Summary: 2 Stars
Love - hate thoughts on this book so I went middle or the road, 2.5 stars. Some parts were slow and dull so I found myself glossing over them. Other parts, like the Mineral Rights conversation and preparing for difficult conversations, were very good. Much of the advice is Carnegie like so I suggest you read How to Win Friends and Influence People. I would have preferred the fluff been removed and shorten the book considerably. All in all, it was worth my time because of what I do at work but it's certainly not for everyone, not a book I'll find myself recommending except in very specific circumstances. Even then I'd probably tell someone to get it at the library and just look at a few sections.
