What You Need To Know About Conversational "Cons" Helpcard

Do you know what these phrases mean? Good Faith Conversation, Bad Faith Conversation, Conversational Cons? If you don't it's likely you are prone to being manipulated by a number of verbal techniques. And, it's also likely that you are unintentionally creating arguments through the language you use.

Available in E-version instant delivery version and in traditional book format sent in regular post

The Point: Language is a funny thing. We all learn early on in life how to use verbal techniques to get our own ways, even when those tactics don't really work very well with adults. In fact, often, they create arguments and bad feelings. We call those verbal techniques "conversational cons".
