"A remarkable new way to move beyond biases and blind spots (especially if you don't think you have any!) so you can communicate more effectively with a friend, lover, relative, or colleague. You know what it feels like to be 'at odds' with someone. Sometimes it seems like you are speaking completely different languages. Cognitive neuroscientist Dr. Dawna Markova and communication expert Angie McArthur have spent years developing and implementing tools to help people find common ground. They provide the strategies you need to bridge the gap at the heart of your differences with other. Each of us possesses rational intelligence: the capacity to divide information into discrete categories, processes, and logical steps. The secret to building bridges between people lies hidden in your relational intelligence: the way you communicate, understand, learn, and trust. How to map mind patterns (the secret to pinpointing communication pitfalls) and identify thinking talents (the catalysts for peak performance). You will gain insights into how you learn in order to turn doubt into trust and uncertainty into productive engagement. Brimming with anecdotes and advice from the authors' experiences as a mother and daughter-in-law who are like night and day. Your guidebook for making profoundly positive change with those you care about"--Provided by publisher.

McArthur, Angie.
