Why do only a few people truly excel? Some point to innate talent. Others suggest education. Research doesn't support either. In Where's the Gift? you'll discover the secret that few have learned: the ability to capitalize on feedback, in all its forms, will do more to drive success than IQ, education, or talent. In this remarkable book, Michael-John and Nigel Bristow demonstrate that there is incredible power in feedback. Whether you call it advice, suggestion, criticism or even insult, feedback gives you the power to change, build stronger relationships, achieve more of your goals, and to do so with fewer bumps and bruises. Where's the Gift? employs a classic African folktale and a simply story backed by years of research and real-world experience. The message appeals to individuals form all walks of life, and has already had a major impact on people and corporations around the world. The straightforward lessons in this book will make you more effective at work, school, and home, and the benefits will last a lifetime. As the authors like to say: change a little, gain a lot.
