About this listen

 What does it take to win success and influence?

Some people think that in today’s hyper-competitive world, it’s the tough, take-no-prisoners type who comes out on top. But in reality, argues New York Times bestselling author Dave Kerpen, it’s actually those with the best people skills who win the day. Those who build the right relationships. Those who truly understand and connect with their colleagues, their customers, their partners. Those who can teach, lead, and inspire.

In a world where we are constantly connected, and social media has become the primary way we communicate, the key to getting ahead is being the person others like, respect, and trust. Because no matter who you are or what profession you're in, success is contingent less on what you can do for yourself, but on what other people are willing to do for you. Here, through 53 bite-sized, easy-to-execute, and often counterintuitive tips, you’ll learn to master the 11 People Skills that will get you more of what you want at work, at home, and in life. For example, you’ll learn:

· The single most important question you can ever ask to win attention in a meeting
· The one simple key to networking that nobody talks about
· How to remain top of mind for thousands of people, everyday
· Why it usually pays to be the one to give the bad news
· How to blow off the right people
· And why, when in doubt, buy him a Bonsai

A book best described as “How to Win Friends and Influence People for today’s world,” The Art of People shows how to charm and win over anyone to be more successful at work and outside of it.

Includes a PDF of the Appendices from the Book Career Success Communication & Social Skills Decision-Making & Problem Solving Personal Development Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Relationships Workplace & Organisational Behavior Workplace Culture Thought-Provoking Success

I enjoyed listening to The Art of People. It was interesting. However in my personal opinion you can't beat Dale Carnegie's work: How To Win Friends And Influence People. That piece of work by Dale Carnegie will always be my favourite. I do take my hat off to Dave Kerpen though because he has introduced some new and interesting ideas and concepts. Overall it has been an interesting listen. So thank you to Mr Kerpen for producing this audio book.

A Nice Audio Book.

Super light reading. More like light magazine / article stories rather than book chapters. The author has the feeling that his readers are low intelligent beings, and he needs to teach them the very super basic principles in communicating. I do not recommend by any chance.

Very shallow, no depth. For naive only
