Opis

It's a Bedroom not a Board Room provides communication skills for ambitious couples. As a psychologist for over 30 years, Dr. Lois Nightingale discovered that ambitious and outcome-focused couples often had more difficulty connecting with loved ones at home. When they faced challenges at work, they focused on a solution and found an answer. But these skills only seemed to increase problems at home. When they finally landed in therapy they were on the verge of ending another relationship, financing a divorce, or facing the thing they hated most: failure. It was as if they were trying to find their way around New York City with a map of Chicago. The map was accurate, but if misapplied it was frustrating, even dangerous. That's what many ambitious couples do when they use the work skills they've come to trust, at home in their personal relationships. Dr. Nightingale shares specific strategies she teaches driven personalities and their partners. Her communication tactics are presented against the backdrop of her own family's business history and her own personal relationship journey. Now you can read the tips she shares with clients who ask why their personal relationships are falling apart when they're so effective in other areas of their lives. Put these skills into practice and watch your relationship improve.
