It should be read by everyone. They are basic things but sometimes we just forget. According to me all are crucial conversations and sometimes you need that help to mold it, so it can be fulling expressed and heard too.

Remarkable book to learn crucial conversations

One of the best books on personal development related to improving interpersonal skills. This book teaches how to handle that critical one to one communication that has the potential to sabotage one's relationship if not handled carefully. How unbeknownst to us our own heart betrays us when we get caught up in heat of argument and subconsciously plans, hatches up plan to defeat our intentions this book explains it all. Book offers principles, know how & practices to develop self-awareness during those critical moment when conversation can spiral out of control from innocent to crucial to disastrous. Book is guided by serious research of tools offered. Examples provided to illustrate are to the point & extremely persuasive. One can have immediate impact on one's life if one becomes aware of basic principles presented even one is not in possession of skills required or yet to acquire the skills to practice those principles.

Absolutely the best book on communication

Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 19 March 2021

Verified Purchase

I don’t usually write reviews, but this book is gold for anyone looking to communicate better in their professional or personal life. Every chapter is dense but at the same time accessible in language. Every other line can be highlighted and be used in real life situations. If you lack in some areas of communication and desire to fix the same, you must read Crucial Conversations.

Life changing. Buy it.

Life changing. Buy it.

I have ready few books that have truly changed the way I interact with the world. This is one of them. I read this book in the mists of a messy divorce and it really helped to clear things up. It showed me that I was going about conversations in completely the wrong way. I wish I had found this sooner in my life. It would have changed so much.

It will teach you how to interact with people when it matters most. Whether its partners, children, parents, manager, boss, strangers or friends you are most likely messing up your conversions and not even noticing it.

I can not recommend this book enough. I recommend it to everyone who asks me about books or if I think it can help them.
Its also available on audiable. I have both. However you get it, get it.

This book is paired amazingly with Chimp paradox. These 2 book are my killer combo recommendation.
Once you have finished it, take some time to reflect deeply. You'll be surprised what you discover with your new knowledge.

Effective tool for INTJs

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 21 October 2018

Verified Purchase

For the MBTI framework believers, specifically those of which are classified as INTJ, this book is an absolute MUST.

The book presents the unfortunate situation we all live in, which is the inability of people to speak their mind without it having an impact on the way they are seen. Hence becomes a practical tool for people management.

Fortunately there is a CEO who recognises this madness and inefficiency and has built his company based on "Radical Transparency"....top 5 biggest hedgfund in the world....Bridgewater associates.

Hypothetical and untrue story compromised integrity of book

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 20 July 2022

Verified Purchase

There is one story that is made up. It is a discussion in an organisation where an individual (Greta) is tasked with cutting costs. One person responds her question as to why costs are being cut by identifying that the organisation is spending money on a new office. Greta's response to this statement is that the organisation will arbitrarily cut the project costs by 50% or cancel the project. It is not possible to arbitrarily decide to reduce construction costs by 50% especially if the winning bid was competitive. Its a made up story! You can reduce the 'scope' or change furniture to a different / cheaper product but the agreed contact rates are the agreed contract rates.

Massive disappointment

Given the strong reviews this book has, I was expecting some wonderful accionable insights. The book does offer some in theory but the gap between practical application is lacking.

This book is indispensable

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 21 May 2019

Verified Purchase

The book has had a profound effect on how I approach negotiation both at work and in personal life. In our world cheap advice is abundant and too many are looking for a bag of tricks to make others do what they want. This book is very different: it starts with explaining how negotiations work in principle and why having a fixed goal is detrimental to the success.
