<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>How everyday proverbs and conventional wisdom deceive us into to wasting time, money, and opportunity; and practical steps to avoid those traps and improve decision-making.<p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Winner of the 2018 Independent Press Award Expensive Sentences won the top award in three categories of the North American Book Awards 2017: Business Finance - GOLD Business Leadership and Management - GOLD Business Entrepreneurship - GOLD </b> <p>Conversations have consequences. Discussions lead to decisions that shape the future for individuals, families, companies, and nations.</p> <p>Too often these decisions are derailed by faulty logic and false constraints. These pitfalls are not simply hidden, but deviously veiled in the guise of wisdom, truth, and common sense.</p> <p><i>Expensive Sentences</i>exposes the clichéd wisdom that leads to lost time, money, and opportunity. Readers will discover how to hear decision-making traps in real time, and learn to guide teams back to fact and logic that will lead to better outcomes. </p> <p>Through historic examples, business stories, and personal anecdotes drawn from decades of experience, the author illustrates the prevalence and impact of flawed reasoning. Equally important, the book includes a clear path to improvement: sample text to upgrade conversations and exercises to correct assumptions and clarify solutions.</p>
