If you have not, I suggest reading Dale Carnegie's book, "How to Win Friends and Influence People." You might also consider the associated "Dale Carnegie Course."

The book is a perennial favorite. I return to it before big work events, job interviews, or as I feel my interpersonal skills shift from my desired norm. The course was instrumental in setting those norms by encouraging a deep interest in individuals and improving my speaking and (more importantly) listening skills.

I largely credit Dale Carnegie's teachings for my marriage.



Wow, so wonderful ! My mentor and startup investor told me to read this years ago so it’s about time I read it!

Great book list coming from this conversation !
