Recenzii

'This book will help you appreciate the value of your own truth-telling and share it with others. I urge you to read it and live by it.'
'Ken Blanchard, coauthor, The One Minute Manager

'Full of rich experience and wisdom. I heartily recommend it.'
Freeman Dhority, Ph.D., senior partner, Leading Learning Communities

'Non-threatening, personal, and accessible. Laurie Weiss gives readers the opportunity to draw themselves out without feeling badly. The non-confrontational language makes it work.'
'Lora Vahue, coach/consultant/writer

'Laurie Weiss gives us a refreshing and realistic statement of the power of truth-telling in business organizations. She makes a compelling case that is tempered by appropriate caution and sophistication and she maintains a sense of humor and wit that is captivating. This book sets a standard for relationships in modern organizations, whether they be small business concerns, large corporations, or public sector bureaucracies.'
Robert W. Gage, Ph.D., professor of public affairs,
University of Colorado

'Business is an institution that holds truth to be rather low on the totem pole of values. Yet virtually all other institutions "religion, law, philosophy, science, art, psychology" encourage people to speak the truth without prejudice. This book tackles truth-telling in business with great insight and gusto and with marvelous examples. It is high time we took seriously the value of truth and how it applies practically to what after all affects us all - business.'
Alec Tsoucatos, Ph.D., adjunct professor,
economics and business, Regis University

'This book offers a gold mine of ideas. The first few pages provide more than one's money's worth. I predict, however, that you will continue to read, drawn forward by the captivating real-life incidents and the wrestling with the truth that ensues. And after you have finished, you will want to recommend it to others.' - International Transactional Analysis Association
