Review: A straight-to-the-point, non-fluffy book that could help a lot of people work together - I’ve had my share of bad working relationships. It’s the truly awful ones you remember. -The VP who didn’t acknowledge anyone in the hallways -The “been-there-forever” person I got stuck working with who seemed to hate me ("No, thanks. I DON'T want your job despite what you think.") -The political people who were always jockeying for positions (at the cost of others) -The short-tempered clients who made my work life rather depressing It wasn't all bad! I had excellent relationships with many managers and colleagues. This is the book I wish I’d had back then because there are always going to be difficult people to deal with. The framework that the author provides is super helpful. Now that I freelance, these questions are ones that can help me as I begin new working relationships. I’ll be using this and keeping it on my desk to refer to often. Great book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #70,960 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #234 in Communication Skills #623 in Business Management (Books) #840 in Leadership & Motivation | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (406) | | Dimensions | 5 x 0.61 x 6.95 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1774582651 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1774582657 | | Item Weight | 1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | June 27, 2023 | | Publisher | Page Two | ## Images ![How to Work with (Almost) Anyone - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cg53UCvyL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Transform Your Work Relationships with MBSs Essential Relationship Framework! *by L***A on July 7, 2023* Michael Bungay Stanier's "How to Work with (Almost) Anyone: Five Questions for Building the Best Possible Relationships" is a game-changing resource for anyone looking to cultivate resilient and vital work relationships.

It’s the truly awful ones you remember. -The VP who didn’t acknowledge anyone in the hallways -The “been-there-forever” person I got stuck working with who seemed to hate me ("No, thanks. I DON'T want your job despite what you think.") -The political people who were always jockeying for positions (at the cost of others) -The short-tempered clients who made my work life rather depressing It wasn't all bad!

I've read The Coaching Habit and How to Begin and got so much out of both of them. I bought How to Work With Almost Anyone because, even though I am a solo business owner, I do have employees and contractors and I knew I would find something useful in the book. The good news is I did. It got me thinking a lot about the working relationships I have (and had) in my almost 45 years of adult life. I appreciated all the free resources the book offers at bestpossiblerelationships.com, especially the demonstration video of the Keystone Conversation. I watched it with awe and not a small amount of envy as I thought, "no boss I've ever had would even consider a conversation with me like this!" And alas, that is the rub, for me, about this book. Admittedly this is my perspective but when I think back on all the employers I ever had, with the exception of perhaps one, I am hard pressed to imagine having the Keystone Conversation with any of them, let alone even asking for one. Chalk it up to life, but the array of emotionally challenged, narcissistic, drug-addicted, ladder climbing, self-absorbed, hostile, predatory, and downright stupid employers I've had, made my experience of reading HTWW(a)A feel like a naive pipe-dream at best and, at worst, something short of - "Yeah, right! Not going to happen in the corporate world that I was a part of, I guarantee it!" As an employer now, with a small team, and several contractors, I can see how having a Keystone Conversation could be valuable, provided it happens from the start. There was something else that bothered me about this book. It assumes one has a lot of time to do all the deep work and exercises. I know this is part of MBS style, and it's worked for me in other realms, but for this book it bordered on self-help psychology that made me feel like, "Hey I'm looking to you for the answers here!" There are some good "actionable, tactical, strategies," to quote Brene Brown's quote, but I can't really see how they would work with an employee/employer who is a real d**k from the get-go! If you are lucky enough to work with great people, this book could be for you. But if that was not the hand you got dealt, not sure you will find what you are looking for here. To leave on a positive note, I do very much appreciate (and am somewhat in awe of) the amount of books MBS reads and recommends at the end of the book, with short descriptions of their value. Also, there are a lot of other tidbits of wisdom that I do find myself thinking about. (e.g., The Curse of Competence and TERA) The book is like a cake with several really good ingredients but for some reason just didn't hold well together coming out of the oven. ## Frequently Bought Together - How to Work with (Almost) Anyone - The Coaching Habit: Say Less, Ask More & Change the Way You Lead Forever - The Advice Trap: Be Humble, Stay Curious & Change the Way You Lead Forever --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pe/products/480830567-how-to-work-with-almost-anyone](https://www.desertcart.pe/products/480830567-how-to-work-with-almost-anyone) --- *Product available on Desertcart Peru* *Store origin: PE* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
