Influence Others, Start With Yourself uses Leary’s Rose interaction model to give you an insight into the different communication processes. Leary’s Rose is a schematic reproduction of different ways of behaving and the effect this has on other people. With the help of exercises you learn how you can choose to behave differently, how you can manage each situation and obtain the result that you want and still accept the other person for who they are.
This practical model can be applied in all types of everyday situations; a difficult work discussion, a business conflict or a difference of opinion about a holiday destination. It is just a question of making the right choice.

布鲁斯说："不行，我们只有三个人，人数不够。
安东回答说："那么我们玩什么游戏好呢？"
布鲁斯对此回答说："我想去海边找贝壳。"
杰丝敏说道："太好了，这主意太棒了。我也去。"
安东脸色变差了，他沉默抗拒。
