Short Summary to Never Split the Difference | Book Therapy with Chris Voss

[@WakingsCall]

So true. the common sense thing to do is to talk well, to communicate well (also important) but LISTENING, to UNDERSTAND. cant get past how important that is.

Thank you Paul! Yeah! It's curious how the talking-well part gets stressed over and over, and how little people want to trust listening. Makes me think of this from Epictetus: "We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak." 🙃

@@coreybennettboardman Absolutely! makes me wonder how different the world would be if that was the normal mode of connecting??

[@coreybennettboardman]

@@WakingsCall Truly! Man, what would that be like?!

I’m currently reading this book. I’m enjoying the stories. I too am impressed with the empathy employed in Voss’s methodology. Another book that I think you will appreciate is Nonviolent Communication. Deep

[@coreybennettboardman]

Thank you Mike. Is that from Rosenberg? Added to my library list. Glad you're enjoying Voss. This book is up there as a top book that changed my life! 🙌

@@coreybennettboardman yes that’s right, Marshall Rosenberg wrote Nonviolent Communication. It’s great to hear you got so much from Never Split the Difference
