AMA’s August 2007 newsletter contains a great article entitled “The Lost Art of Asking for Help.”

The article highlights M. Nora Kalver’s new book, Mayday! Asking for Help in Times of Need (Berrett-Koehler, 2007) and reviews:

  • why people delay requesting help
  • common cultural myths why we don’t ask for help
  • The Mayday! process for asking for help.
