"Today most of us communicate from behind electronic screens, and studies show that Americans feel less connected and more divided than ever before. The blame for some of this disconnect can be attributed to our political landscape, but the erosion of our conversational skills as a society lies with us as individuals. And the only way forward, says Celeste Headlee, is to start talking to each other. In We Need to Talk, she outlines the strategies that have made her a better conversationalist and offers actionable steps anyone can take to improve their communication skills."-- book jacket 0 text unmediated volume lcc BK jderpo 2020-09-21 10:22:11 jderpo 2020-09-21 10:22:11 11596 11494 11494 0 0 ddc 0 0 BED BED BED 2025-12-21 CIR 153.6 H34 c2017 HS1645 2025-12-21 23:11:51 2025-12-21 BK
