Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Almost every profession these days requires that you possess "good people skills". But what are people skills and how can they be developed?

People Skills: Guiding you to effective interpersonal behaviour will equip you with the knowledge and skills to get more from your interpersonal relationships, whether they be of a personal or professional nature.

The book opens with an explanation of a basic model of interpersonal functioning in a contemporary context. In the chapters that follow, this model is applied to:
* understanding yourself
* nurturing relationships
* enhancing group functioning
* thriving in organisations
* developing personal leadership
* sustaining interpersonal development.

Brimming with case examples, applications, and opportunities for reflection, People Skills is a practical book, readily accessible by anyone interested in the complex dynamics of interpersonal behaviour.

Bibliography: (pages [109]-111).
