From one of the most trusted and bestselling brands in business training and throughout the world, The 5 Essential People Skills shows how to deliver a message to others with power and clarity, how to build loyalty and inspire creativity by demonstrating assertiveness, and how to be assertive.

Put these five essential skills to work and begin your transformation!

Have you ever walked away from a conversation full of doubts and insecurities? Do you feel as if you’ve lost a little ground after every staff meeting? Most of us are either too passive or too aggressive in our business life, and we end up never getting the support, recognition, or respect we desire.

I guess 40 pages are damn enough. very fucking dumb. one star because now i know what assertiveness means :)

Away from the "Dale Carnegie's early prophecies that will change your life" non-sense, it has some good social psychology notes that are worth trying and can definitely help re-evaluate our conception of how 'the others' react to what we say and do.

Good book for learning communication and conflict resolution

Dale’s book is good first step to learn about communication and conflict resolution. It provides you with good examples and with good exercise to improve your assertiveness. Worth to read.

Boring. I had to read it for a work thing.

This book is good if you really want to be succeed in office/work but not in every aspect of life

Differnces and disagreements are an inevitable part of life. This book provides practical approaches to settling disputes and resolving conflicts in a professional manner. Key aspects of this approach to resolving conflicts are active listening and asking questions to ensure an accurate understanding of the othe person's message.

Superb

Resolving conflicts is the part that resonates the most in this time and age. Do away with troubles and you are good to go anywhere of your choice! I recommend the book to anyone who wants to entertain in the garden of social intelligence and people's understanding. Without which all intellectual achievements mean nothing.

Basic but often-forgotten principles… the book is a good reminder of the impacts if they have been forgotten or not used, especially in the workplace.

Goes hand in hand with Dale’s other books. Actions and questions at the end of the chapters are good to use as a sense check once in awhile for how we’re impacting ourselves and others.

This book offers a guide on how to handle people (principally) in business situations.

Some of the sections are quite interesting. The most useful parts were the quotes from Carnegie at the start of each chapter.

This book wasn't actually written by Dale Carnegie. I feel similarly about this book as I feel about How To Win Friends and Influence People - I feel the advice within is either largely manipulative and not conducive to facilitating meaningful relationships, or incompatible with my personality.

The 5 Essential People Skills may actually prove useful for someone in middle management, but for a near-college graduate like myself, there isn't much to be gained here.

Listened to audio book. Would be worth reading/listening to again.
