think more and more people in business (and life in general) are realizing that people are not exactly like them.

Loved this book; great advice on how to improve your relationships and effectiveness with those around you in both your work and personal life. I really liked Raines' idea of "The Titanium Rule"; while I believe this was the real spirit of the Golden Rule, her explanation of what it really means "to do undo others" was insightful and exactly how I am striving to live my life.
