How to Work with (Almost) Anyone

We all want to be happy at work right? You're more likely to be happy if you're getting on with people. This is a quick and simple guide to how you can develop, maintain, repair and even end business relationships well. The book is a quick and easy read with templates, sample questions and lots of further resources available. MBS revits his TERA framework for optimising psychological safety that we first read about in The Coaching Habit and puts it into context for this situation. I found that part most useful.

Como sempre Michael usa sua excelente didática para nos ensinar como fazer a teoria se aplicar a prática. Livro muito útil para líderes e para qualquer profissional que queira desenvolver seus relacionamentos estratégicos. Não deixem as relações ao acaso!

Makes difficult concepts and actions feel easy and feasible

Provide a clear and useful framework and guidance on how to apply it in practice to pursue good and efficient relationships at work.

MBS's latest book provides a refreshing, thoughtful approach to a topic that lies at the heart of our personal and professional lives—relationships. This book achieves something remarkable: it distills myriad complex concepts into actionable sensibilities, doing so without sacrificing any nuance or depth. It is evident that a great deal of care, consideration, and intellectual rigour has been invested into this work, resulting in a book that is as insightful as it is practical. As an introverted rogue scholar, this book has helped me to see the many ways in which I can improve the relationships I have with those I work with. And not in some mechanistic way—it’s warm, wholesome and abundant. I find myself enthusiastic to work with people once more! How unbecoming. If you are wise enough to suspect that there are relationships in your world that could do with some wholesome invigoration—read this book. It is a gift to you, and all who know you.
