1.2 More Flies with Honey

This week, I offer up two stories about win-win negotiation: One from Aesop, and one from Erickson, though I put the good doctor in a Biblical disguise. The stories were recorded during a class I taught called "How to Teach Anger Management in Recovery." It is a live recording, so I hope you'll overlook a few pops. Also, I answer a question from the mail bag: "How do I know when my story is being effective for change?"

Also included are announcements about upcoming events.
