About the Book: Unspeakable
We avoid sensitive yet crucial topics at our own peril. Harvard Business Schools
Christina Wing provides tools for communicating with clarity and compassion.
We live in a world where the list of off-limits topics keeps growing—at work,
among friends, even at home. Age, retirement, succession, failure, money,
politics: these subjects often feel too sensitive to touch. So we avoid them,
sticking to small talk. But avoidance comes at a cost. When we cant address the
realities shaping our lives and careers, trust erodes and relationships suffer.
Is this really the new normal?
In Unspeakable, Christina Wing argues that it shouldnt be.
