What book has everyone else been reading? This is recycled garbage!! It’d be nice if marks could make this stuff up on his own but a third of this whole book consists of quotes from other people.
Here’s one such quote, check out this bullshit, “character assassinations are just one level removed from an actual assassination”. I shit you not, marks is preaching that the escalation process goes from giving a frank opinion of someone, directly to killing them!!! In what world does that make sense? What ever next!? Someone looks at you funny, stab them in the neck?

I love the 5 steps to resolving conflict. I've read them before in Resolved by Orrin Woodward. But this book explains the principles deeper and gives dialogue examples of how it would work properly. I have used them before in conflict and they do work. I would consider this book a very important tool for anyone who leads, works with or directly reports to other people.
Amazing step-by-step guide to resolving conflict and strengthening relationships. This is now one of my recommended books for newlyweds (along with Personality Plus and The Five Love Languages).
