Our Take

This book has it all.

Itll help you be a better listener and feel more confident around others.

The best part: reading the book doesnt feel like youre reading some kind of mumbo-jumbo self-help manual.

The end of each chapter even has a Key Takeaways section to help you review what you just read.

The examples are very good at explaining the point, but on occasion, they seem borderline unnecessary.

Of course, you could always skim forward in those sections if you dont need the explanation.

That being said, this is one of the best resources Ive ever come across.

Cabane makes it clear that the strategies within the book are supposed to be practiced.

Just like any other skill, it takes deliberate practice to develop.
