It is written in simple, clear language and is designed to be of immediate, practical benefit to readers in developing better relationships at work and outside work. Chapters include advice on: Grounding, Listening, Questioning, Empathising, Speaking, Negotiating, Proposing, Counselling, Confronting and Preventing.

The Perfect series is a range of practical guides that give clear and straightforward advice on everything from finding your first job to choosing your baby's name. Written by experienced authors offering tried-and-tested tips, each book contains all you need to get it right first time.
