The Words We Choose: Your Guide to How and Why Words Matter transforms what you think in your head to align with how you feel in your heart, for the greater good of all.

Your voice is a choice. “Communication is a leader’s most important skill. It’s at the heart of our ability to influence and engage others. The words we choose (and the tone behind them) determine how well we manage relationships and attract and retain talent. Word choices impact how quickly and efficiently we, and our teams, execute on goals. Our words affect how people feel, and how they feel drives how they act. Ultimately, our words shape our culture.

The ease and flow of such well founded information

This book has changed my lens to life. The words rolling through my own mind to all the talking around me, I have significantly shifted the way I choose to use and receive words. As humans, this is our whole basis of communication. Terre shows how becoming more conscious of this power we have can elevate our entire human experience. She offers studies, stories and several suggestion for “how to”. I could recommend this book to anyone. It’s going to make the whole world a better place.
