Welcome To The www.shbiyue.com.cn Supersite Main Page
These days, most websites don't require much of visitors, and lack the depth to help you learn, improve yourself, and function more effectively at home and at work. This site is a little different. It's HUGE. It's top quality content. And if you can't find the help you need here on topics like leadership, management, interpersonal communication, conflict, etc, you can use our custom designed search engines to find what you want elsewhere.
We're good with that, because our mission is to provide you with the best learning experience possible, whether online, from our books, our learning tools, and our services.
This site has been online and growing for more than ten years, which accounts for its size, depth and variety.

What's New
A few updates: In Dec, 2013 we launched a site dear to my hear: It Takes A Village To Teach A Child, with a focus on helping teachers, schools and school administrators work more effectively with parents and community members. Often parents are emotional about their children, as they should be, so we look at how schools can build bridges with parents.
In a similar vein, we set up an amazing database of techniques to use for defusing angry customers. We've taken a lot of the content from my books on the topic, and made them available free. Drop in, and pick up tricks, proven techniques and strategies to deal with difficult, frustrated, and frustrating customers and clients.
