Start your conversations, meetings and events productively by breaking the ice with purpose.
 |
It took me a while to wrap my brain around this book concept. I'm not a huge fan of idle talk and empty conversation. I rolled my eyes at many of the icebreakers people have used "on" me or at events I've attended. It took a while for me to make this topic my own in alliance with my SpeakStrong Method. But thanks to my wonderful collaborative community, including my eventual co-author Diane, (who friended me by reaching out with icebreakers), things came into focus. I discovered the power of icebreakers with purpose. The next challenge was the fact that I wanted to write a book that included both conversational icebreakers, meeting icebreakers and event icebreakers. We found a way to make that work too. And here it is. Diane and I are proud of it, and hope it opens doors for you. List: $12.00 Your price: $9.86
