Let's face it. If you want any sort of success in life, you're going to have to deal with other people at some point. It's also the only way to make friends, meet new colleagues, and even find your special someone. So, why does dealing with other people seem so difficult sometimes?

In the newly revised second edition of How to Succeed with People: Remarkably easy ways to engage, influence and motivate almost anyone, bestselling author and international keynote speaker Paul McGee delivers yet another exciting and inspiring guide to improving your communication skills and transforming how you interact with others. You'll learn how to get over your dread of social events and create better relationships at work and in life, as well as:
* Strategies for holding people's attention when you talk and how to listen and respond appropriately to what others are saying or doing
* Improve your ability to confront and challenge difficult people in and outside work
* Develop your skills around how to empathise and support people in tough times

A can't-miss guide on how to boost your understanding of people and your success in dealing with them, this book is perfect for young professionals, managers, executives and supervisors.
