EVERYONE COMMUNICATES, FEW CONNECT

John C. Maxwell’s latest offering – ‘Everyone Communicates Few Connect’- What the Most Effective People Do Differently, is not just another leadership guide, it is more of a handbook for leaders. Of course the term ‘leaders’ is metaphoric as anyone in their day to day lives will benefit fro the principles in this book. What sets it apart in the first place is the hands on approach that the author suggests in winning over audiences. Now-a-days with the presence of numerous modes and channels of communication, John C. Maxwell through his book - ‘Everyone Communicates Few Connect’ elucidates some simple principles of getting our words across and making them count.

I found the book very boldly presented and the design on the cover is very attractive. The print quality, font used and the design and layout of the pages build up for an excellent reading experience. It has been presented in a very reader friendly format with specially highlighted boxes to draw attention to important parts of the page. The narrative skills of Dr. Maxwell are by and large exhibited throughout this treatise and Yes! As far as I am concerned his methods are a success because I am listening.

The opinions I have expressed are my own.
