BOOK REVIEWS
If you’re sick of deep dives and webinars, exhausted by a world of re-baselining and Death by PowerPoint, or enraged by endless guff about goal-focused learnings and opening the kimono, KevinDuncan’s refreshingly no-nonsense guide will put a smile back on your face.
Henry Hitchings, author of The Language Wars
Latest research in neuroscience shows that words really matter, and have a chemical reaction in the brain, causing us to switch off, reject and turn away, or accept and take action. This is a guide to put you on alert to the phrases that might just be turning people away from you!
Kevin Murray, author of The Language of Leaders
Despite Mr. Duncan’s sterling efforts one can only wonder at the blame storm that arose from the omission of ‘blamestorming’. (Vb. The practice of attributing blame in advance of a known outcome).
