A Fresh Approach to Starting Conversations With Ease and Confidence

About this book

Struggling to start difficult conversations at work or home? The First Four Words provides a simple, powerful solution to overcoming avoidance and awkwardness. Leadership coach and attorney Tucker Miller draws from decades of experience helping executives, teams, and families communicate with clarity and compassion.

This practical guide reveals how just four thoughtfully chosen words can spark transformative dialogues. Miller mixes research, real-world examples, and actionable phrases tailored to any relationship quandary or communication style. Whether you're an introvert facing a networking event, a manager delivering constructive feedback, or a parent smoothing family tensions, The First Four Words equips you to initiate discussions with ease.

Learn the common excuses we use to shy away from crucial conversations and how to get out of your own way. Discover the four essential talks leaders must have with their teams around performance, conduct, support, and feedback. Dissect the behaviors that build trust, like walking the talk and apologizing sincerely. Access four-word prompts to reach consensus amidst conflict, offer encouragement, navigate gatherings, respond to grief, and more.

Brimming with empathy, wisdom, and a dash of humor, The First Four Words makes communication accessible. Miller argues brevity and courage are the keys to understanding. Her book will empower you to transform the conversations you avoid into opportunities to solve problems, deepen relationships, and create the life you want. Whether at work or home, now you can speak up skillfully by starting simple.
