About this listen

Whether meeting a new client or bumping into a potential mate, you only have a few seconds to make a favorable impression. Is that really possible? Author Nicholas Boothman, a lecturer and licensed master practitioner of neurolinguistic programming, believes yes! He introduces a revolutionary approach to face-to-face communication that will help anyone succeed at making meaningful, and immediate, connections.

Whether selling, managing, job hunting, negotiating, pitching an idea, applying for law school, joining a new group, or on your knees with a marriage proposal, the secret of success is based on connecting with other people. And the most powerful new idea for making connections is revealed, step by step, in Nicholas Boothman's breakthrough program of rapport by design. Easily learned, it will help you make the best of any relationship's most important moment: those first 90 seconds.

Never again let shyness get in the way of an appointment or interview. Or leave the making of an important contact to chance. Or find yourself tongue-tied or distracted in social situations. The key, according to Boothman and his plan for face-to-face communication, is simple: the way to make a person like you is to make yourself be like that person, if only for the 90 seconds or less it takes to establish rapport. Learn the power of a Really Useful Attitude, the secrets of voice tone and body language, the difference between "opening up" words and "closing down" words. And reinforcing all of these skills is knowing how to read another person's sensory preference; most of us are Visual people, some are Kinesthetic, and a few are Auditory. So when you say, "I see what you mean" to a Visual, you're really speaking his or her language. And then you're on your way.

Yes, worth the credit

I don't have much experience with NLP but the concept of presenting yourself and dealing with another person provided are benificial to learn about so I rate this one ok. Have to go back and relisten in a few months as a refresher.

How to make people like you in 90sec

I didn’t like the narration. I should have tried it before purchasing this audiobook. The narration made it unpleasant to listening.

A wealth of information

I will listen to this over and over. There is so much good, concrete information here. Techniques, explanations, how-to's, etc. It's much better than I even hoped it would be. I have already gotten along better with the new people I am meeting thanks to the guidelines in this book. I'm so very glad I bought it. It's going to be a treasured title in my audio library.

Definitely Worth IT

Easy to listen to with good advice. I tried some of the techniques after listening, and they worked well. I had heard about NLP before listening; this audio-book is a short but useful introduction to the field.

Any additional comments?

Very useful book if you are looking to build your relations with others. Includes some philosophies from Neuro-Linguistic Programming, the book is a good intro to that as well.

Worth a Try

Connecting with people is a complex skill that comes more easily to some than to others. This book offers some interesting yet easy to apply techniques for the socially challenged that are at least worth a try. I think it will surely boost the confidence of shy people, while improving the effectiveness of communication among the bold. The author provides many helpful examples to explain the concepts he puts forth and does so without getting too wordy or wasting time. He also does a good job at narration.
