“My 10-year-old decided to become the ‘bull’ last night. He was screaming about having to do homework and was not going to let me get a word in edgewise. I slammed his book on the table, which momentarily silenced him, but when he began yelling again, I slammed the book a second time. I did not speak, but just slammed. He looked at me like I had two heads and promptly forgot what he was screaming at me about. Ahhh… silence is golden! The bull retreated and did his homework. Thank you, Michael!”
-Karyl K. Chretien, Marriott Vacation Club International, Orlando, FL

“Wow!!! How fast I found Michael’s suggestions work! My son is a freshman in college. He has been going through the “adjustment” I have been tough on him impressing the importance of education. His calls were few and short mainly because I would be questioning him. Well, today I listened. He had done very well on a Power Point project at school. Normally I would have said, “That was good, but you need to continue to better.” Today I told him, “That’s great” and that I was proud of him. His call lasted twice as long as usual. The stress was absent, as well as the worry. Thanks for your help, your class is a great motivation to improve one’s communication at work and in every facet of life.”
-Joe Yochim, Delcora, King of Prussia, PA
