Dialogue: Rediscover the Transforming Power of Conversation
by Linda Ellinor and Glenna Gerard

Editorial Reviews
Creating and sustaining collaborative partnerships at work
In the context of contemporary business, the ancient art of "dialogue" refers to a thoroughly modern communications practice that can bridge diversity and forge cooperation in virtually any kind of organization. Linda Ellinor and Glenna Gerard, consultants and trainers who focus on issues such as communication and collaboration, contend that informed use of the process can measurably enhance creativity and boost productivity--and, not coincidentally, improve profitability. In Dialogue: Rediscover the Transforming Power of Conversation, they explain why they believe it can work and show how it might be integrated into today's workplace. --Howard Rothman

The publisher, John Wiley & Sons: A dynamic new system for fostering effective communications within groups, Dialogue breaks down barriers, creates partnerships, and helps team members achieve optimal results. In this book, managers learn how to use the full range of Dialogue methods, including its four fundamental techniques: suspension of judgment, listening, identification of assumptions, and inquiring/reflection.

This is a great book on both the “Why” and the “How” of dialogue.
