My Favorite Book Recommendations on Tough Conversations and Professional Growth

I’m always asked about good books as references for clients’ professional growth.  I look forward to hearing which books are your favorites.
Some of these recommendations are oldies but goodies.  My current clients have all given their stamp of approval.  Happy reading!
