Live Connectionsis simply a treasure trove. It is humane. It is light-hearted. And above all, it patiently makes the reader – and virtual facilitator – familiar with what works. As the authors say, “When people focus entirely on the task, they may forget to treat each other
like human beings”. This is the strength of the book. A must-read for all those who want to make a difference facilitating in the virtual space!’ Kaushik Gopal, Coaching Talent Manager and Centre for Creative Leadership, Asia
