Riassunto

Men and women are supposed to be equal. They now do the same work as each other, but somehow, somewhere, communications have broken down. Women still think men doubt their abilities, and men still feel that women are blaming them for their problems. What has gone wrong? Barbara Annis, the world's leading gender specialist, offers a fascinating and practical guide to how gender differences lead to misunderstandings - and reveals what you can do about them. Targeted at everyone who lives and works with the opposite sex, employers and bosses* Offers advice to companies who can't hold on to talented women on their staff* Reveals the five top 'challenges' men and women experience with the opposite sex* Explains the blind spots and different 'styles' of behaviour men and women follow* Shows how the same words have different meanings and how to recognise these* Provides insights and strategies for improving communication* Uses real-life scenarios and practical techniques to turn communication breakdown into win-win relationships* Covers issues such as conflict resolution, harassment and the workplace*
