Many of us dread having to convey our ideas to others, often feeling ill-equipped, anxious, and awkward. Public speaking experts help by focusing on planned communication experiences such as slide presentations, pitches, or formal talks. Yet, most of our professional and personal communication occurs in spontaneous situations that creep up on us and all too often leave us flustered and stumbling for words. Stanford lecturer, podcast host, and communication expert Matt Abrahams provides tangible, actionable skills to help even the most anxious of speakers succeed when speaking spontaneously.

Publisher's summary
Families spend 50 minutes per day arguing, do you want to be wasting your life in conflict?
The right tools can help you turn fights into positive learning experiences and even opportunities for growth.
A new study reveals shocking statistics - we spend an average of 49 minutes per day fighting with family members! In addition, 2.8 hours of work time per week is also dedicated to conflicts. Instead of being focused on something productive, we’re wasting energy on interactions that are very often meaningless and sometimes - destructive.
Society tends to have a pretty negative view on confrontation, which is why most of us will never learn how to disagree in a meaningful way and how to actually start perceiving conflict as a learning opportunity.
Conflict, however, can be a truly beneficial thing because:
- It allows us to learn more about others
- New ideas can be born during a heated interaction
- It can teach many valuable skills: Patience, active listening, collaboration, and flexibility
In Mastering Confrontation, you’ll discover:
- Some of the most common causes of arguments, disagreements and conflicts in the workplace, at home, or among friends
- What’s active listening and why you need to start practicing it today
- The strategies for resolving a conflict like a boss
- The importance of knowing when the situation can’t be salvaged and you need to quit
- And much more.
Mastering Confrontation by Robert Hunt can help you change your mindset gradually using concrete steps.
Get this audiobook now to master uncomfortable situations, improve your communication, and learn the ins and outs of conflict resolution.

Questioning thousands of parents and educators, Dr. Wayne Dyer learned firsthand what people really want for their children. They don't particularly want their kids to go to fancy schools, acquire riches, or live "the good life". They do want them to have personal integrity and high self-esteem, and to grow up with love and peace in their hearts. Children raised the Wayne Dyer way feel useful and needed. They are inner- rather than outer-directed. They live a stress-free life naturally, without resorting to drugs.

Questioning thousands of parents and educators, Dr. Wayne Dyer learned firsthand what people really want for their children. They don't particularly want their kids to go to fancy schools, acquire riches, or live "the good life". They do want them to have personal integrity and high self-esteem, and to grow up with love and peace in their hearts. Children raised the Wayne Dyer way feel useful and needed. They are inner- rather than outer-directed. They live a stress-free life naturally, without resorting to drugs.

Drawing on interviews with executives from Fortune 500 companies, Kathleen Kelley Reardon has compiled essential advice on how to break into the inner circle of power at the top of the corporate ladder. Many books cover practical business knowledge, but few address the issue of interpersonal skills. The ever-changing circle of power within a corporation may not necessarily follow the same guidelines it publicly professes. The most talented employee isn't always the one promoted; there is an intangible quality the upper echelon look for.

But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Good listen
I would say this is useful for people like me, whose parents did not set proper examples or impart basic wisdom of conflict and resolution. That being said, if you got this in your early life, I’m not sure there’s much insight here for you. I enjoyed it as a catch-up course.

Awesome
Asking for what you want and knowing how to do it, even if that requires using tough love, but in a way that would cause no harm to yourself or others takes empathy and precious skill. If you haven't mastered that, this book is for you.
