Description: John Wiley & Sons. Hardback. Pp: 320. It has been estimated that less than twenty percent of all human communication is expressed through words.

Employing a proven process, Barbara Madonik communication expert, mediator, and international consultant reveals what it takes to understand, analyze, and utilize nonverbal communication to greatly enhance the mediation process.nnnThis step by step handbook teaches you how to tune all your senses into what is happening with parties and counsel during mediation and thereby greatly increase your ability to prepare for and facilitate the overall process.nnnIn this important resource, Madonik outlines her tested seven step process that reveals how to: 1.
