Winning with People: Discover the People Principles That Work for You Every Time

... Show More
Ask the successful CEOs of major corporations, entrepreneurs, top salespeople, and pastors what characteristic is most needed for success in leadership positions, and they'll tell you-it's the ability to work with people.

Some people are born with great relationship skills, but those who are not can learn to improve them. In Winning with People Maxwell has translated decades of experience into 25 People Principles that anyone can learn.

Maxwell has divided the People Principles in this book according to the questions we must ask ourselves if we want to win with

Are we prepared for relationships? Are we willing to focus on others? Can we build mutual trust? Are we willing to invest in others? Can we create a win-win relationship? Each section contains guiding People Principles. Some are intuitive, such as The Lens Who We Are Determines How We See Others. Others may go against your instincts, such as The Confrontation Caring for People Should Precede Confronting People. All of them are 100 percent practical!

Very gentle approach to friendly, kind ways to interact with others. Discusses 5 central concerns: readiness, connection, trust, investment and synergy. Lots of examples and questions bring points home.

Readiness - who we are determines how we see others, know yourself first, hurting people hurt people, never hammer someone, we can lift up or take people down

Connection - entire world, except 1, is composed of others; put ourselves in our place not others; each person has potential to teach us something; people are interested in others who are interested in them; believing the best of others usually brings out the best of people; caring precedes confronting others

Trust - foundation of any relationship; never let situation mean more than relationship; when bob has a problem with everyone, bob is usually the problem; being at ease with self helps other be at ease with us; when preparing for battle, dig a hole big enough for a friend

Investment - all relationships need cultivation; find 1% we agree on and focus 100% on it; journey with others is slower than journey alone; celebrate success of friends; take higher road when interacting with others

Synergy - when we help others, we help ourselves; people work well with others they like; working together increases odds of winning together; joy of being together as bottomline

Me parece que aborda ciertos conceptos de la obra de Dale Carnegie pero al estilo de Maxwell; considero que nos habla de temas que deberían ser instintivos para la mayoría de las personas pero no lo son; por lo que es un libro que recomendaría a las personas que aprecio

بعد قراءة هذا الكتاب..
أجد أنوار أضيأت..
وعلامات اتضحت..
ومشاعر مختلطة اضطربت..

آمال وآلام..
فرحة وفخر بمعرفة وامتلاك كثير مما كتب
وحزن وأسى على واقع ضيعت كثير مما كسب

والعبرة بغد قادم نعوض فيه عظيماً مما تعلمنا.. وأيقنا..

✨ يستحق بحق القراءة مئات المرات ✨

Felt a little repetitive on the types of approaches & even though Maxwell has a religious background, more varied applications/reflections outside the religious realm may have helped to connect to a wider audience

Good book if you’re a married, American, white male. This book would probably be helpful for some people, I learned a bit from it. Just wait until you’re married and have kids, then I’m sure you’ll enjoy it way more than I did.

Has some incredible insight but really starts to drag after awhile. Maxwell made this so much longer than it needed to be.
