The significance of workplace communications cannot be over-stated. I must admit, we used to take this for granted. But lately, it rises to the top as an area requiring massive improvement. I don’t mind listening to this all day. The wise ideas from the author are motivating!

One clear-cut guide.
Lewis has highlighted empowering ways that anyone can use to better connect with people. His approach to communication is a well-defined one and extends well beyond how to speak more clearly.

Good overview.
Be it a small business or a big one, it must not take effective communication for granted. I admire the narrator’s effort in making the message of this audio guide-elaborate and engaging. Thank you for reminding me that there is no scenario that can’t be improved with better communication skills.

It is true that effective communication are not practiced in companies, thus I greatly appreciate the author for coming up with this decent book to date. With this, companies won’t miss the opportunities to grow.

Gift-worthy
It’s worth as a gift for my brother who owns a small business. It includes a healthy presentation of what internal and external communication is as well as group workplace communication. I’m sure my brother will be ecstatic once he sees this. He is a lover of books and a committed boss, too. I hope it will all work out well for him now.

Pass on this Audible Book
The production of this book is one of the worse that I've run across. There's one chapter where the reader starts a sentence and then gets confused and says, "what the" and then it ends.
The content itself is useless.

May be good for some.
Well- I didn’t think this book was particularly helpful for me, but certainly there are some folks that I can think of who might never have heard some of this information.
I’d recommend it for my college-age self, not my 20-years in the workforce self.
Some of the narration was a bit distracting with what seems like pauses between page turns and misspoken words (or maybe a poorly proofreads copy), but overall it’s a decent job. I couldn’t do any better.

Unprofessional
Chapter 4, 3:38. I am sorry but I purchased this book and I wish I could get my credit back. I am a Christian and the last thing I want to hear is the narrator swearing. Did anyone review this before allowing it to be sold. It is choppy and inconsistent. My co workers were alarmed.

Irony
The information was not exactly on the level I was looking for, and didn't have as much information as I would have liked. To top it off the narrator stumbled a great deal reading this, and even at one point stopped mid sentence to reread a line then said, "what the fuck" after doing so. In a book about communication this was just ironic.

Gained a great deal of info.
It’s suitable especially for those who are new in their businesses. I didn’t know there is such thing as internal and external communication. If it’s not for this, I wouldn’t have known about them.
