SUMMARY:Why Can’t They Just..
DESCRIPTION:How often have you begun a sentence with “Why can’t they just…” Why can’t Madison just get to the point? Why can’t Pat just see the logic in my suggestion? Why can’t Alex just stick to a routine? The answer lies in temperament differences. Learn why “just” doesn’t belong in those sentences and how you can use temperament savvy to improve your communication skills.. \n\nSPEAKER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n Margaret E. Anderson\, Trainer\, Author and Consultant\, helps people get what they need from others\, while building bridges\, not burning them.

She has also lectured for the University of Houston and for Texas State University.
