Publisher's summary

What is the one quality that all successful people have in common?

They have mastered the art of dealing with people!

Let this audiobook show you how to:

  • Achieve your goals
  • Handle the human ego
  • Become a master conversationalist
  • Make others feel good about themselves
  • And much more!

Skill with people is the one essential ingredient for success and happiness at home and in business. The Art of Dealing with People gives you the skills to take your people skills to a level that you never thought possible!

Skill in human relations is similar to skill in any other field, in that success depends on understanding and mastering certain basic general principles. You must not only know what to do, but why you're doing it.

As far as basic principles are concerned, people are all the same. Yet each individual person you meet is different. If you attempted to learn some gimmick to deal successfully with each separate individual you met, you would be faced with a hopeless task.

Influencing people is an art, not a gimmick. When you apply gimmicks in a superficial, mechanical manner, you go through the same motions as the person who "has a way", but it doesn't work for you.

The purpose of this book is to give you knowledge based upon an understanding of human nature: Why people act the way they do. The methods presented in this book have been tested on thousands of people who have attended my human-relations seminars. They are not just my pet ideas of how you should deal with people, but ideas that have stood the test of how you must deal with people. That is, if you want to get along with them and get what you want at the same time.

Personal relations powerhouse!

Quick and to the point! It summarizes everything from How to win Friends and influence people as well as the 48 laws of power in a brief 1 hour audiobook.

The narrator is spectacular with a resonating voice that draws you in. The principles are direct and logical. For anyone looking to improve their conversations with people this is the book!
