Acknowledgments

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to several on the
Booher team who’ve contributed significantly to this book:
Sally Luttrell, Chris Casady, Jacque Hocking, and Mark Bil-
gere for their help with the Booher Communication Survey;
Rachel Rhodes for compiling survey results and helping
prepare the manuscript; Candy Wright for compiling sur-
vey results and helping with research; and Polly Fuhrman
for help in copyediting and manuscript preparation.
I also wish to thank Glen Sheppard for help with re-
search, creating graphics, and reading the manuscript and
offering suggestions; Vernon Rae for reading the manu-
script and offering suggestions; my editor, Donya Dicker-
son, and all the team at McGraw-Hill for their enthusias-
tic support for this project, as well as my past books
published with them; and my agent, Doris Michaels, for
her optimism and support in all my writing projects.
Finally, I want to thank you, loyal readers and clients,
who so graciously have shared your stories through the
years. Those experiences add significantly to our projects
together, make our work meaningful, and enrich our lives.
