The Reality Of Today's Workplace

The nature of people and business has changed so drastically in the past 25 years, even in the 15 that I've been around, that anybody who is not their own boss NEEDS THIS BOOK. SIB puts into words my unverbalized feelings of today's working world. It opened my eyes to how people communicate, what roles each of us play, and even helped me strategize my own career paths. We have more means of, but fewer skills for, communication in this technological age. By getting back to the basics of real, intimate communication, we get "naked" with each other, which is both frightening and empowering. In the wake of Corporate Scandals, the Next Wave Of Business will thrive on honesty, openness, and emotional leadership. Unless SIB has been brought into the curriculum, the business will do "okay." Those who care, and know how to show it, will be miles ahead of those who fear change.

From customer service agent to CEO....

There truly is something to be learned by people at any stage of the corporate game. This book was nice because it didn't speak over my head. Instead, it gave me honest-to-God INSIGHT as to how I can institute changes in my professional relationships. Don't let the metaphor throw you off!

Insightful Analogy and Great Book!

I generally don't to gravitate to books about the world of business -- I'm one of the "disillusioned" ones. And, I don't usually buy books with the word sex in the title either! But this book.....WOW! The metaphor (intimate relationships-business relationships) is very well-developed and makes for a very understandable, easy, and humorous read! As I read it, I found myself readily applying what I was learning to both business and personal relationships! I definitely recommend this fresh, new, approach to solving some of the many problems plaguing personal and businesss relationships these days!

Change your life

This book will change your life...for the better. What a refreshing introduction for a more productive way to do business and be more satisfied at the same time. The sexual analogies make the concepts more real and understandable but the concept is truly important. Be real, trust yourself and others, and be the best you can be. You can tell that this is the start to a great series of books that explain how you can be more productive while being happier.

Laughs AND New Ideas

Rarely have I found a business book that makes me laugh, have "ah-ha!" moments AND give me refreshing new ideas for how to work with my clients. A great book for consultants or business leaders.
