Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
From the author of the global bestseller, The Power of Habit
Who and what are supercommunicators? They're the people who can steer a conversation to a successful conclusion. They are able to talk about difficult topics without giving offence. They know how to make others feel at ease and share what they think. They're brilliant facilitators and decision-guiders. How do they do it?
In this groundbreaking new book, Charles Duhigg unravels the secrets of the supercommunicators to reveal the art - and the science - of successful communication. He unpicks the different types of everyday conversation and pinpoints why some go smoothly while others swiftly fall apart. He reveals the conversational questions and gambits that bring people together. And he shows how even the most tricky of encounters can be turned around. In the process, he shows why a CIA operative was able to win over a reluctant spy, how a member of a jury got his fellow jurors to view an open-and-shut case differently, and what a doctor found they needed to do to engage with a vaccine sceptic.
Above all, he reveals the techniques we can all master to successfully connect with others, however tricky the circumstances. Packed with fascinating case studies and drawing on cutting-edge research, this book will change the way you think about what you say, and how you say it.

I finished it, it must have been good!
Great mix of content that provided many insights and practical applications of ideas discussed, backed by research. I start many books but this was one I actually finished which is rare. Thanks for the audio format and very engaging narration x

I’m doing a lot wrong
Simple to understand although I provably need to listen to it a few more times to truly be able to implement some of the tactics

Bought on a whim... great spot of luck
Great stories of how to communicate for more meaningful conversations with discription of key techniques that we can easily incorporate in to every conversation. Delivered in a digestible and memorable way. As the book progressed I realise that this describing is one of the most practical and psychologically informed techniques for conversations I have ever read. I highly recommend for everyone who is not a hermit or living as a castaway..

overall great
all topics except 1 were fantastic. when it came to vaccines it mostly taught you how to manipulate people. with current knowledge most of what was said about covid vaccines was false or at a minimum questionable. this is of course my personal view. outside of this small chapter the book as a whole is definitely worth a listen and i have used many of the things learned in this in my personal and professional life. with possitve results.

Essential
Sleep for 8 hours. Put yourself in the other persons shoes. See things from their point of view. Ask how the felt about working, living, creating, being or doing. Genuinely listen and show this by asking “if I understand you correctly..” Repeat this with everyone you interact with. The level of engagement from people increases 10x. Just finished the audio book and about to relisten while I walk.
