It’s not often that I get the chance to sit at the feet of two incredibly smart as part of an interview. Today, however, is just such a day.

My guests are Peter Bregman and Howie Jacobson PhD. They’re the authors of the new book You CAN Change Other People: The Four Steps to Help Your Colleagues, Employees – Even Family – Up Their Game.

They rely on over 50 years of collective professional experience to show you exactly what to say to influence those around you for the better.

No one wants to be changed, but change and personal growth are critical to success, and more importantly, to a fulfilled life. 

Their new book is a must-read for anyone who wants to improve their impact with coworkers, family members, and everyone in between.
