It’s the foundation to all relationships, but equally, it can also destroy all relationships! How are your communication skills? From work relationships to family relationships, from friendships to coffee shop strangers, the way we communicate with others can either serve you positively or negatively! Quite often, we have no idea how well we’re doing. Let this audiobook reveal the cold, hard truth.

Do you struggle to communicate? Are you having a hard time connecting with new friends, acquaintances, or coworkers? Does the idea of small-talk feel daunting, or even impossible? No matter what anyone says, good communication as a skill is difficult to learn - and seems impossible to master.

One final job, the score that will set him up for life and, ironically, it's entirely legal. Well, perhaps not entirely. Buying up a big part of the city does require money, a lot of it, and getting that amount of scratch together has been a little...tricky. But, ostensibly, it's all above board. It's almost like he's a good person.
