The Third Perspective

Brave Expression in the Age of Intolerance

Beschreibung

"In this manifesto, Africa teaches us how to return to critical thinking and reduce societal divides by opening our minds and being more self-questioning in difficult discussions. This book will help you figure out what you truly believe-as opposed to parroting or having knee-jerk reactions in conversation. You'll learn to share your views, hear theirs, make a point you feel must be made, and try to find common ground without self-censorship or self-sabotage. This personal guide helps readers move away from rigid thinking, allowing them to enter any potentially difficult discussion about politics, work, personal responsibility, race, sex, gender, religion - whatever the subject - while maintaining integrity, authenticity, and openness, and successfully expressing opinions while listening to contrary points of view. Africa has built a successful business coaching an exclusive roster of high-profile clients seeking to handle themselves in the public eye. The tools offered in The Third Perspective have been honed over years of that experience: hers is a proven system that works. She offers readers a new path for communication, and because communication is everything, critical to building trust and fruitful relationships, a life transforming experience. Africa Brooke's framework has three pillars-Awareness, Responsibility, and Expression-that ask: what is stopping you from speaking your mind, what do you stand for, what are you willing to risk?"--
