The Secret to Getting Through to Absolutely Anyone

The Secret to Getting Through to Absolutely Anyone

This intriguing sentence caught my eye: “How to make the impossible possible.”  It is a quote from an interesting book by Dr. Mark Goulston.

What an FBI Hostage Negotiator Can Teach Us

Dr. Mark Goulston’s Just Listen: Discover the Secret to Getting Through to Absolutely Anyone may be the perfect book to bring back balance when focusing on productivity.

Dr. Goulston brings a unique blend of expertise to this subject. He has been a UCLA professor of psychiatry for more than 25 years, an executive coach, and has trained FBI and police hostage negotiators. Seems like the perfect qualifications to show us how to get through to absolutely anyone.

An incentive to read this book might be to close more deals, increase sales, or improve business and personal relationships. Following Dr. Goulston’s pearls of wisdom will most likely result in achieving these reasonable goals.

The surprise side effect of employing his strategies for better communication can result in more happiness, peace of mind, and a richer quality of life.  A unique concept!

Something Different About This Book

What was different?  Unlike a lot of professional and personal books that have goal setting, efficiency, and more action-oriented tasks as the focus, Just Listen is the refreshing opposite. Dr. Goulston shares with readers how a more receptive approach is necessary. Instead of trying to force the close of the deal, the job promotion, or a resolution to a family challenge, he provides guidelines and practical suggestions on how to allow these developments to take place more naturally and authentically.

The book offers down-to-earth and doable advice on how to communicate with just about anyone. Drawing upon his clinical experience, coaching expertise, and his own personal challenges as a husband and father, he gives us a lively read with Just Listen’s conversational tone.

The focus and promise of this book The Secret of Getting Through to Absolutely Anyone, is that you get through to people by having them “buy in.”  “Buy-in occurs when people move from resisting to listening to considering what you’re saying.
