I’ve recently started reading the book by Dale Carnegie and so far, roughly a third into it, I’ve found it pretty good although not revolutionary. What are you folk’s opinions on it?
Addendum: also any advice for making genuine connections and interact with people for someone whose social skills are not the sharpest?
It’s obvioulsy dated. It’s advice comes off as trying too hard today (maybe that was true when it was written too). But I think it’s helpful. I read it because it was there on the bookshelf, but maybe other books would’ve helped me more. ‘Supercommunicators’ was way more valuable, but I’d say covers a deeper level of social skills, ‘How to Make Friends…’ coveres the basics better.
