I am sitting in a learning group early morning 5.30am Dubai, along with like-minded learners.
A Young committed chap from Singapore is sharing his review on the book “How to win friends and influence people” by Dale Carnigie – One of the most best-selling author and book – 1936.
Like how the book name is so interesting, same interest starts
from his very first slide.
What is life?
The whole book is about how to handle people, how to win
people, how to change people without giving offense. It is a must read if you
are student, professional or a leader.
The author Carnegie's main focus is on interpersonal skills,
effective communication and being a successful salesperson.
He is very well known for his other famous book – “Stop
worrying and Start Living”.
He is so successful in training people as public speakers, and he was loving that work.
In this How to win people book, he talks about below topics
in detail:
- Fundamental techniques in handling people:
- 6 Ways to make people like you
- How to win people to your way of thinking
- How to change people without giving offense or Arousing resentment

In Today's world, I can see how much this book has been influenced and how many theories had been revolved around this basic concepts.
This has been used majorly for Communication excellence and building relationships.
Some of his famous books are :
- - Art of Public Speaking
- Stop Worrying and Start Living
- The Quick and Easy way to Effective Speaking
- Lincoln The Unkown
There is no doubt that he has placed a huge mark in this modern world of theories. IF he has been living now, he would be happy to see that his words are living now as great tools of excellence.
I found this book very useful and interesting to see how the author had foreseen the current situation which is such a boon with leaders i.e. Relationship management and servant leadership method.
