How to Have Confidence and Power in Dealing with People

By: Les Giblin

Narrated by: Pat Reilly

Taking a brass tacks approach to communication, How to Have Confidence and Power in Dealing with People explains how to interact with others as they really are, not as you would like them to be. The goal is to get what you want from them successfully - be it cooperation, goodwill, love or security.

Les Giblin, a recognized expert in the field of human relations, has devised a method for dealing with people that can be used when relating with anyone - parents, teachers, bosses, employees, friends, acquaintances, even strangers. Giblin shows step by step how to get what you want at any time and in ways that leave you feeling good about yourself. Moreover, the people who have given you want you want wind up feeling good about themselves, too. The result? Nobody gets shortchanged. It's a win-win situation.

Each chapter includes a handy summary, so there's absolutely no chance of missing the book's key points. You can also use these recaps to refresh your memory after you've finished the book. Instead of feeling miserable about your interpersonal skills, listen to this best-selling guide and learn to succeed with people in every area of your life.

Solid refresher

Pretty Solid
If you've got the time, I would really recommend How to Win Friends and Influence People over this book. I think it says the same thing but feels like a better read. however, this one is pretty short and is a good refresher.

This is a wonderful book.

Straight forward and practical to implement. One of the most influential books I've read. Timeless.

great info

it reminds me a lot of how to win friends and influence people. a lot of great principles with radical examples.

A little dated, but good

You can tell it was written in the 50s by some of the language, but if you can get past all that, it's a solid book with some really good principles to employ.

a must read this is my 7th time.

never stop learning I would recomend rereading this book every year les teaches you sometging new every time.
