People are the problem. They're always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work - a colleague, subordinate, or boss. Handling people issues is every leader's major headache. It's what takes up the majority of their time and - more important - the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.

Questioning thousands of parents and educators, Dr. Wayne Dyer learned firsthand what people really want for their children. They don't particularly want their kids to go to fancy schools, acquire riches, or live "the good life". They do want them to have personal integrity and high self-esteem, and to grow up with love and peace in their hearts. Children raised the Wayne Dyer way feel useful and needed. They are inner- rather than outer-directed. They live a stress-free life naturally, without resorting to drugs.

The subject of "money" remains one of the most fascinating, thought provoking, emotional, polarizing, and well-researched subjects in the world. Scores of books, articles, blog posts, and speeches have been written on what money is, how to earn it, how to spend it, who has it and who does not, and a myriad of other topics related to the effects that it produces. Yet, despite the constant focus and interest on the topic, there is one word that describes the average person's views around money: confusion.

Whether you're trying to communicate your business idea to an investor, encourage your children to embrace your moral values, or break an addiction to endless web surfing - if you lack the skill of influence, you will be unable to convince yourself or anyone else. The human mind is like a titanium lock. If you communicate poorly - through endless talking, inattentive listening, or over-the-top pressure - it's like spinning the numbers on the lock over and over uselessly. But if you develop the key skills of influence, it's like knowing the exact combination to that lock.

Be less tolerant
Today’s society wants to give everyone a participation trophy. That doesn’t work when livelihoods. The most successful companies were incredibly hard and tedious to apply and get hired. I gained a few good insights to hiring and Firing. Ive ran a business for over17 years and still felt like I learned a few things here.

Very Helpful!
I wish I had read this about 10 years ago. I oversee a small company with about 20 employees. What I have learned from this book not only will help me in the hiring process, but also in the active management process. And it will help me in the firing, that inevitably happens in all organizations. I recently had to fire someone and if I had received the information from this book earlier, I would’ve done it a lot sooner which would’ve made it much easier for everyone. Thank you, Brian!

Short read and some good nuggets
The book is direct and conveys the knowledge quickly. The advice is practical and there are good sections. However, some of the advice is outdated - as long as you take it with a grain of salt and decide for yourself if it is relevant in today's world. In addition, the same advice is given for hiring first line workers as well as executives. Tips such as "rejecting the candidate" to see if they come back to apply again in a year won't work for most companies.
