For the final episode, I chose a chapter that’s about resetting a relationship that’s gone through a tough spell. Though I hope that’s not how you’d describe these past few episodes, it’s a nice segue back into normal programming with some of my fantastic guests. Our last storyteller is Sanyin Siang; coach, leadership expert, and recipient of the first Thinkers50 Marshall Goldsmith Coaching award.

Michael reads from Chapter 18 of his newest book, ‘How to Work with (Almost) Anyone.’ [reading begins at 1:25]   


Hear us discuss: 

Why reset a relationship? [2:57] | Should we begin again?: “Avoid the reset, and the relationship will likely continue to deteriorate. Take the opportunity to plant the seeds of recovery, and you’ll likely strengthen it.” [4:55] | What to think and talk about when starting over. [5:19] | How do we finish this?: “All things, BPRs as well, have their season.” [6:20] | Sanyin Siang reveals one of her best working relationships: “A great way of showing someone that you care about them is to give them honest feedback about what they’re doing well, as well as what they could be doing better.” [10:00]
