Do you want to boost your people skills to easily build rapport with anyone? Or just avoid uncomfortable misunderstandings and awkward situations?
If you (1) have trouble speaking so others listen and respect you, and (2) never know what to say or how to act around new people, that feeling of dread and despair isn't something you have to live with. People Tactics is your key to social intelligence and better relationships.
Discover exactly what enables someone to call themselves a "people person".
People Tactics is a book of action that allows you to truly understand others and speak their language. You'll learn how to apply great charm to make new friends and engage old ones. It will fundamentally change your mindset on how to approach people and give you the specific words and phrases to do it.

Story
What if charisma could be taught? For the first time, science and technology have taken charisma apart, figured it out and turned it into an applied science: In controlled laboratory experiments, researchers could raise or lower people's level of charisma as if they were turning a dial. What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab, and every person you meet, a chance to experiment.

Clear and to the point - very helpful
As I was listening to people tactics I found all the information to be delivered in an easy and understandable way.
This book really covers as the title suggests "people tactics" that can and will help you practically have better results in building relationships.
I would have appreciated a few more stories in the book to make the lessons learnt easier to remember.
Overall helpful and thorough. Not a lot of new information on the topic of gaining influence and getting people to like you, but it delivers a strong punch of the best tactics out there all in one place.
Thanks for your work Patrick.

Nothing new here.
Not a thing. This author is just a writing machine... and would probably be helped by doing more reading. There just is nothing new here. If you have never read any self-help anything, this might be worth the effort. Otherwise...
