RECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES

Angie McArthur Dawna Markova

Connecting in a Disconnected World

This book introduces a revolutionary way to build understanding, good communication, and deeper rapport among friends, lovers, relatives and colleagues. Find out how to discover your "relational personality type" and build relational intelligence. The authors are experts—a mother and daughter-in-law team.
We all know what it feels like to be "at odds" with someone we need to get along with. Sometimes it seems like we speak different languages!

Markova and McArthur explain why that description is surprisingly accurate. Communication style is at the heart of our relationship clashes.

Applying the authors’ ingenious and long-tested Mind Patterns and Thinking Talents techniques to navigating personal relationships, RECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES will help readers discover their relational "type," their innate pattern of speaking, understanding, trusting, and learning that informs their reactions.

With resonant storytelling (including about their own journey to understanding one another's very different styles), revealing dialogue analysis, suggested practices, and profound yet simple advice for growing our "relational intelligence," this invaluable book will help us uncover and overcome differences and deepen the understanding between them.

What a tremendous contribution! Dawna and Angie lay out a compelling and practical path for helping us understand and discover how to grow our relational intelligence. The outcome is that we learn not only how to reconcile our differences but also howand whywe might thrive because of them. I highly recommend this wonderful book.

"Markova and McArthur show us that our ability to collaborate is not only a measure of intelligence, but essential to solving the world's problems and seeing the possibilities in ourselves and others."

Dawna Markova and Angie McArthur offer an extremely insightful roadmap to navigating the diverse ways each of us approaches making ourselves understood, as well as the way we tend to hear others. The insights and strategies herein are simple and elegant. The advice is as invaluable for success at work as it is for success in life.

Reconcilable Differences offers an inspiring way to bridge differences with someone you care about. It will help you identify and improve your ‘relational intelligence,’ and become a better communicator in the process.

True communication begins with understanding yourself and the way you are being understood. This book is a powerful guide to that self-analysis and bridge-building.
