It’s more important than ever to have sharp business communication skills. In today’s workplace, where bad behavior and even worse communication ethics run rampant, you need conversational secret weapons to help you get ahead, strengthen your reputation, and manage any crisis thrown your way.
The Truth About Scandal uses real-life stories, exact scripts, and highly successful power phrases to guide any professional—from the C-Suite to entry-level—through tense work conversations with employees, awkward moments with colleagues, office scandals that could threaten your entire career, and much more.
Written by award-winning communications strategist Melissa DeLay (The Real Power 50, Minnesota Business Magazine 2017; Communicator of the Year 2007, Carlson) Melissa shares her strategies for communication success based on two decades of reputation and crisis management.
