The Rationale for Rudeness

Nov 27, 2018 | The Professional Noticer

This week, Andy answers two listener questions!

Our first question is from a businessman who has noticed fewer people with etiquette and common courtesy while traveling. He wants to know if our competitive society has led people to act this way.

The second question is from a mother who is having trouble getting her son to apply himself anywhere—whether it’s school, work, or chores. She is at a loss for what to do next and needs advice for getting him back on track.

Be sure to listen for Andy’s take on why it’s a better approach to talk with boys while participating in an activity together, rather than a face-to-face conversation.
