Mike Bechtle is not only entertaining and compelling but his advice is rock solid and practical. Anyone who is serious about having healthy relationships--at work or on the home front--will love this book. "--<b>Drs. Les & Leslie Parrott</b>, authors of <i>Saving Your Marriage Before It Starts</i><br/><br/>"Mike Bechtle skillfully guides us to good communication skills. He points out that when we're under stress without the proper tools we usually default to toxic patterns learned in childhood--yelling, whining, or clamming up! Our body language, as well as our spoken words, can effectively calm our tough conversations or ignite a raging war. Being an effective communicator can be learned by using his easily applicable counsel. His book is full of wisdom."--<b>Elizabeth B.
