Now, for the first time, the training program that Jodi uses with her top-tier clients is available in book form. Great on the Job teaches people how to talk to one another at work, every day, in every situation, when you’re on top of your game and when you have no idea what’s going on. In these pages, you’ll get all the building blocks you need to develop more dynamic and honed communication skills: 1. Dozens of helpful case studies, all based on real workplace scenarios 2. Easy-to-implement strategies that are tactical and practical 3. Sample language and phrases that you can adapt and use right away Business is, and always will be, “a personal thing.” In today’s global economy, it’s not always the smartest, hardest-working, or most technically savvy who succeed. Instead, it’s the people with dynamic communication skills—the ones who communicate effectively, strategically, and persuasively—no matter the situation. Great on the Job will teach you to do just that. “Glickman shows a rich understanding of how basic communications can make or break business relationships and careers.” — Joseph Thomas, Dean of the Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University
