Still Pertinent?.......2004-04-24

As it was written near 2000, a chapter or two suffer from obsolescence already, but the excellence of the rest of the content make it very forgivable.

A must read for IT Managers!.......2002-01-20

As the MIS Director for a large educational institution, I have felt the impacts, first-hand, of recruiting and retaining top IT professionals in a tight job market. Yet there is clearly a methodical approach that can be followed to target the "right" employees and, once hired, ensure that they remain happy and content within your organization.

This book does an excellent job of outlining that process in a simple, easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach. The author not only covers all aspects of the hiring process but also reminds us of best practices that we too often (and too easily) forget to ensure success once we bring top players on board.

This book was pertinent and informative. I intend to pass it around to all of the managers on my staff.

An excellent guide for High Tech Executives and HR.......2002-01-19

Adamsky has produced a superb guide to the Hiring Process that is of great interest to Executives, Recruiters and Job seekers alike. The book is applicable to a wide range of industries well beyond the IT industry.

The book provides a great deal of actionable ideas that you can put into place now to improve your hiring practices, land the best candidates, and keep them as satisfied productive employees. Similarly, the book helps potential applicants better understand the hiring process and get inside the mind of hiring managers. It also contains a plethora of valuable and interesting ideas and commentary on the HR landscape. Truly an enjoyable and informative read !

A Pleasant Surprise!.......2001-12-18

I didn't actually buy this book but won it as a door prize at an industry trade show. I tossed it in my briefcase and didn't give it much thought to it until I was stuck in an airport on my return trip home. Although I don't hire a great number of "information technologists", the book was filled with excellent advice for any manager. His advice applies to the dynamics of locating, interviewing, hiring and retaining exceptional individuals. I like to underline when I read, and when I finished the book I realized I had underlined just about everything! Don't let the title throw you off because this is an excellent resource that truly cuts across all industries. He has his hand on the pulse of human nature, and an incredible insight into those people who understand how (technically) the world works.

I have already given a copy to a friend that owns a small company and has found it a challenge to find and retain good people. If my friend follows the program outlined in the book I am sure he will see the results. One thing I really liked about Adamsky's writing style is that it's light on philosophy and academic drivel and packed solid with the experiences of someone who has obviously been in the trenches.

A boon to job seekers and providers alike.......2001-12-04

I feel better prepared to operate in today's challenging job market after reading this book.

As an IT professional I have had occasion to be on both sides of the interview desk. This book clarified and reinforced many of the beliefs that I formed from these experiences. However, I derived an even greater benefit from those sections that challenged my preconceptions. Mr. Adamsky's use of logic, examples, and self-deprecating humor helped me to see things from a different viewpoint. I am confident that a company can only benefit from the encorporation of his strategies.

Communicating Well: A Key to Success in Work and in Life

Communicating is simply sending and receiving messages. Poor communication can affect your ability to get and keep a job. It can lead to confusion, business losses, missed appointments, and missed opportunities.

Learning to communicate well lets others understand your ideas and needs. Equally important, you can understand the messages others are sending to you.

Improve Your Ability to Speak, Write, and Share Ideas

"Effective Communication Skills" covers the basics of getting your message across in casual conversation or public speaking, in e-mails or letters, at work or with friends. Author Marsha Ludden covers the different ways people communicate:

* By speaking
* By listening
* By writing
* Through electronic media
* Via telephone
* With body language and expressions

Ludden provides specific life and work examples of each type of communication, as well as tips for improving your communication skills.

Tools and Quizzes to Sharpen Your Skills

"Effective Communication Skills" includes quizzes and practice exercises to help you sharpen your communication skills:

* In "Check It Out" exercises, readers can rehearse basic skills, from talking with new acquaintances to writing and sending e-mails and faxes.
* Vocabulary reviews reinforce key terms in each chapter.
* Sample conversations, letters, and phone messages show communication put to practical, real-life use.

The lessons in this book become building blocks for additional improvement. Mastering these skills will help others see you in a more positive way and build your self-confidence.

Communication Book not Effective.......2007-03-28

I purchased this book for my staff to read as part of improving the communication in our group. It was pretty basic; nothing in there we didn't already know. Even thought the author wrote it for adults in mind, it seemed like it was more on a child's level. It was not helpful at all. The group didn't finish the last two chapters: "Getting a Letter to Its Destination" and "Communicating Using Technology" - not worth the money.

Mastering Communication.......2007-01-02

The book discusses skills that are invaluable tools to interacting with people. Effective communication skills are essential for success in business and personal lives.

What the author writes sounds obvious but we tend to forget, communicate badly, and often make a bad situation worse by the way we communicate. Those wishing to learn the basics of communication or just want to refresh their expertise in this field will find the book useful and helpful.

The book will help the reader to understand effective communication, and it explains how to communicate your message in the best possible way. After reading the book, you should have a better understanding of how to communicate effectively, to people and groups, through spoken, written and non verbal communications.

This is a practical book that I return to often. This is a valuable book for anyone who is having problems in communications.

Phenomenal.......1998-05-31

Regarded as a classic, exposing our relationship to language as analagous to Copernicus' discovery of planets orbiting the sun. We are as unaware of the sheer importance of communicative skills as goldfish are ignorant of the water in their bowls. Of course, I'm the author's son.

Book Description

SPEAKING PROFESSIONALLY is a concise text for those learning to prepare, deliver and analyze business presentations. Dr. Zaremba draws on more than 20 years' experience to offer a practical, application-oriented alternative to the basic 'how-to' products and the longer, more broad-based, theoretical texts. No other text currently on the market compares to this First Edition. SPEAKING PROFESSIONALLY also addresses one of the major challenges all students face when taking a speaking course: speech anxiety. Sample presentations with critiques help students apply and analyze what they learn. The text also covers business presentation skills; overcoming speech anxiety; communication principles and their application in the business environment; audience analysis and multicultural issues; crisis communication resources and organizations for business speakers; and more.

Just Plain AWFUL!.......2007-08-03

I hate to be so negative, but do not waste your time or money on this item. It delivers nothing that it promises, in fact, it doesn't even seem to have a genuine purpose at all. Several 'professional' speakers crack endless lame jokes about contemporary speech and hold a painfully stinted scripted conversation about the vital importance of speaking well, patting themselves on the back about how accomplished they all are in that area while imparting nothing in the way of instruction. In fact, I found two of the speakers miserable to listen to! The female was much too loud and excessively animated while one of the males was so nasal that you could hear the air running through the back of his sinuses as he talked, clicking epiglottis and all - things that they cautioned the listeners against doing themselves!

I couldn't finish this set, after the first CD, the speaker's voices were like nails on a chalkboard and I dropped it back off at the library the first chance I got.

More of a Broad Overview than a Lesson.......2000-01-14

I bought this tape expecting the "listen and learn" method of better speech that was promised. There are only two short exercises given in the 2 tapes, the rest is general information; some of which is unecessary, such as interview tips and how to keep your vocal chords healthy. I wish they would have taken more time to give concrete help.
