The Learned-it-in Queens Communications Playbook and Workbook— Winning Against Digital Distraction
  • “The Learned-it-in Queens Communications Playbook and Workbook” is about being authentic to be able to build genuine, long-term relationships.  This involves owning who we really are and also listening to others with empathy. 
  •  We all come with our cultural backgrounds and personal experiences, making us who we are. We must acknowledge and accept these traits as a part of our authentic self if we are to come across to others as “genuine”. It is also important to have face to face interactions and learn from other people and cultures. 
  • Often, it is important to also let go and not push an argument. Not being invested in it beyond a point. The author explains her philosophy of communication and interaction through the humorous backdrop of Queen’s dialect and style.
