How did you come to write this book?
I got sick of recommending books by other people. I've also read most of the books in the 'self help' genre I found most of them a little bit cheesy so I knew there was an appetite for self help without the cheese.
A combination of reasons. Mark, my co-author, and I have had a lot of success helping our business clients with these techniques via our consultancy. We decided to adapt them for everyday life so that they weren't just for use at work or in meetings. We also realized we'd picked up some great experiences and stories along the way - stories of people getting what they want in some way or another. So we threw everything into the mix to come up with the book - an entertaining (hopefully!) 'one stop shop' for people in both their work life and their personal life.
