Amazon KindleRecommendation
It turns out that when you become savvy about other people, or “people smart,” you become smarter about yourself, as well. That’s the hidden practical message in Mel Silberman and Freda Hansburg’s intelligent new book. They bring their considerable expertise and hands-on experience to bear in these lessons on building interpersonal skills. Simply laid out, yet well-written and concise, the book walks you through the sets of skills you need to master. As you learn to understand and apply them, you gradually sense the impact these skills can have on your ability to lead and excel. getAbstract recommends this book to those who are interested in improving their people skills (and remember, you’re a “people,” too).
