20 years old but good fundamentals. Liked the analysis of women-men communication styles.

I highly recommend this book to anyone in leadership or executive positions. It discusses everything from managing silence, constructive feedback, and organizational changes.

HBR's Must Reads on Communication was a great read. I'm happy that HBR has decided to publish this collection of articles in a book. They have more books on this collection and each book focuses on a different theme. I wanted to start with 10 Must Reads on Communication since it's an important and relevant area for me - not only have I studied Communication in college, it's one of the themes I'm most fascinated about.
This book rounded up some of the most influential articles on communication, including Conger's article The Necessary Art of Persuasion, which I had already studied at college. The articles mostly focus on business-related communication, as expected, but it is not difficult to transpose the findings of the articles to other areas of life.
The author's findings are still relevant, even though some of the articles have been published 10 years ago.
If you are interested in some of these areas of knowledge (you can check the complete list on this collection here), I'd recommend reading this HBR collection. It's difficult to stay on top of everything that is written, said and published about a theme that interests you but this book helps you get in touch with some of the best known articles of that area while giving you the opportunity to read different theories on the same subject: everything in the same book.
