Vol. 25, Issue 14 Click Ten Truths for Building Extraordinary Relationships By: George C. Fraser 256 pp. McGraw-Hill Companies 2008 Review by: Kendra Bentle

In Click, author George C. Fraser offers anyone longing for meaningful connections in and out of the office Ten Truths on how to find their social voice, cultivate their beneficial offerings to others, and how to truly “click” with like-minded counterparts. From the first Truth (“Be Authentic”) to the last (“It Takes Teamwork to Make the Dream Work”), Fraser reveals the techniques of traditional networking that are broken and backwards, then presents a new way to view meeting, greeting, and ultimately “clicking” with colleagues and friends. Networking is goal-based. Clicking is value-based. Networking is often selfish and one-sided. Clicking is mutually beneficial. But by bridge the gap between the two, real relationships form and real bonds are made. Learn the truths about talking and listening, giving and receiving, trusting and respecting, says Fraser, and anyone can hear the not-quite audible click of a meaningful relationship being formed. Hear enough clicks, and savvy businesspeople will witness the sound of a professional career on the rise.
