Communicate more effectively



Law of Connection
Michael Losier

Reframing, future pacing, installing, and positive presupposition are four easy methods anyone can master in order to communicate more effectively and therefore create better connections in all kinds of everyday situations, says Michael Losier in Law of Connection ( www.hodder.co.uk).

The first method is about looking at something from a different point of view. Reframing is a way to turn what might be viewed as a negative scenario into a positive one, explains Losier. Future pacing, the second method, is a way to communicate to another person that whatever he or she may have been anticipating as a negative experience or outcome could very well turn out to be a positive one. And, the author cheers that when you create an opportunity for someone else to view the future in a more positive light you are, in effect, the bearer of good tidings.

A book that deserves installing in your reading list.
