    About this ebook

    Have you ever noticed that great CEOs, managers and other people in charge always seem to know exactly what to say in every situation? Author Pamela Straker, with more than 25 years experience as a mental health and management professional, has. And in Let Me Stop You Right There, she outlines various common scenarios for effective communication with office archetypes: “by-any-means-necessary” overachievers, gossips, office invaders, negativity-mongering complainers, and many more. Chapter-by-chapter, Straker addresses effective means of communication in the workplace with great humor and insight. Each chapter outlines a scenario, proposes the response, or “line,” to bring the discussion to its logical conclusion, and provides an explanation of why these lines work. Whether a CEO, manager, or supervisor, Let Me Stop You Right There is sure to become an indispensable addition to your business library.
