What to Say and How to Say It provides managers with real-life situations, sample dialogues and practical tips on how to say the right thing to employees at just the right time. It covers performance appraisals, coaching shy employees, dealing with hostile employees, taking corrective action and many other tough situations on the job.

With this book, managers and supervisors can now prepare, plan and even rehearse in advance for sticky situations. The author presents actual “scripts” – sample dialogs for specific problems.

Using the author’s targeted advice, the dialogs and side bars of key words and phrases, readers will be able to:
• Say just the right thing at the right time in the right way
• Avoid embarrassment and awkwardness
• Build good relationships and defuse conflict
• Work with difficult, emotional or even hostile employees
• Guide a conversation to a productive outcome for everyone involved
