By extension, it changes the way we communicate. Roger\u2019s continuing focus on communication-skills development led him to develop a reasearch-based model to quantify how we all communicate.<\/p>\n<p>Roger originally trained as a journalist in the UK, working on weekly and daily newspapers. In Canada, he joined the business press and became the youngest editor in the country in 1972, and later became one of the country\u2019s top business magazine editors, winning national and international awards for writing, editing and graphic design.<\/p>\n<p>He started his own advertising agency in 1975, and went on to found McLuhan &amp; Davies in 1980. Since then, the company has developed into a consulting practice that focuses exclusively on communication-skill development.<\/p>\n<p>A sister company (Think on Your Feet International, Inc.) sublicenses the company\u2019s courses for global distribution. Currently, its workshops are available in over 20 countries, and delivered in some six languages.<\/p>\n<p>Roger has been prominent in the training community for many years, and was president of Canada\u2019s national training association. As CEO of McLuhan &amp; Davies, he is also responsible for strategic alliances, product development and marketing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Mastering-Communications-secrets-persuasive-communications\/dp\/0973435607\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Buy it on Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information about McLuhan &amp;
