About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the author of the global bestseller, The Power of Habit

Who and what are supercommunicators? They're the people who can steer a conversation to a successful conclusion. They are able to talk about difficult topics without giving offence. They know how to make others feel at ease and share what they think. They're brilliant facilitators and decision-guiders. How do they do it?

In this groundbreaking new book, Charles Duhigg unravels the secrets of the supercommunicators to reveal the art - and the science - of successful communication. He unpicks the different types of everyday conversation and pinpoints why some go smoothly while others swiftly fall apart. He reveals the conversational questions and gambits that bring people together. And he shows how even the most tricky of encounters can be turned around. In the process, he shows why a CIA operative was able to win over a reluctant spy, how a member of a jury got his fellow jurors to view an open-and-shut case differently, and what a doctor found they needed to do to engage with a vaccine sceptic.

Above all, he reveals the techniques we can all master to successfully connect with others, however tricky the circumstances. Packed with fascinating case studies and drawing on cutting-edge research, this book will change the way you think about what you say, and how you say it.

Critic Reviews

This is not just a riveting read about how to understand others better. It’s also a revealing look at how to be understood. Charles Duhigg delivers a winning combination of stories, studies, and guidance that might well transform the worst communicators you know into some of the best. (Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and Hidden Potential)
Our personal and professional success depend upon our ability to understand and be understood, and yet, we typically leave this up to intuition. In Supercommunicators, Charles Duhigg goes through a mountain of research — and some riveting stories — and unearths practical tactics to show that anyone can become a more effective listener, speaker, and even social media poster. (David Epstein, bestselling author of Range and The Sports Gene)
Charles Duhigg does it again, with a book we all need to read. Using his unique mix of stories and science, he gives us Supercommunicators, a guide to better conversation and deeper human connection. If you want to improve your communication skills at work and in life, this book is the place the start. (Arthur C. Brooks, Professor, Harvard Kennedy School and Harvard Business School, and #1 New York Times bestselling author of FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH and co-author (with Oprah Winfrey) of BUILD THE LIFE YOU WANT)

It is no doubt worth relistening.

I especially liked the afterword of this book. Backed on many case studies, it does provide some good insights into how we communicate.

Connecting to people deeply is a key variable that decides our overall satisfaction. This book can help with it!

The idea that communication can broadly be classified into 3 types:

1. Logical
2. Emotional
3. Identity

and to connect with someone we need to have the same type of conversation & genuinely share our perspective, only then can RESONANCE happen is a pericing insight.

Right way to interact instead of only speaking

A great book which takes you very deep into Psychology of speaking correctly and with right empathy. One of the greatest takeaway is that for becoming a great communicator, you don’t have to only speak but more emphasis needs to be put on listening with full attention and responding or nudging based on the type of communication. It really goes in great depth of human psychology in terms of talking and listening and is a must read for everyone who not only want to excel at work but also on a more personal level with their loved ones.
