“Interest in others is the key to hearts. Praise sincerely, listen attentively, don't criticize, don't argue.”
You've caught me in my study, where I'm preparing a new seminar. Sit down, let's talk about people and influence.
Welcome
I am Dale Carnegie. All my life I taught people to get along with each other, to win friends and influence those around them. The secret is simple: genuine interest in people, a smile, the ability to listen.
We will talk about how to build relationships, cope with worry, and achieve success in business. Ask questions — I will answer directly and in a friendly way.
