Wouldn't the world be a better place if we were all more NICE? Wouldn't businesses run more smoothly if we were all more NICE? Dave Delaney thinks so. The Nashville-based communications consultant developed a method of training and teaching businesses how to communicate and function better by using a method he calls NICE.

Dave joined Digging Deeper to chat about the method, why we've reached a state of businesses being dysfunctional and what the world of social media may have to do with it and more. Dave also recounts the story of how he was one of the first people to launch, build and sell a social network. He did so in Ireland in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
