Great to improve communication skills

Before I picked up this book, I asked myself why was communicating with ANYONE was important. Surely you have your circle of like-minded people and clearly you know how to communicate with them, but then I realized that more often than not, I find it hard to talk to someone new. This realization made me listen "How to Talk to Anyone". Improving communication skills through the book was an adventure for me. The chapter about conversation influences was particularly helpful.
Overall, the book is full of tips and tricks on improving your communication skills and everyone will surely get something from it.

Perspective changing, this book is essential!

Loved this book. It enlights simple and direct ways we usually can communicate, but we don't pay attention to them. It gives the reader/listener the awareness of the impact we may give in a conversation, opening the perspective of how we communicate, and what tools we can use in order to connect with others. Beautiful work and greatly written!

This is a great book needed for great relationships. Words are powerful and knowing what to say at the right time can never be over-emphasized. I love this book that has taken time to explain the importance of conversations and given powerful and helpful tips on what to say and when, and how. The conversation starters are really great. If you are timid or shy, this will be your new handbook to break every conversation ice. Highly recommended for everyone!

Little Tricks

It's just what it says it is. It reminds the reader of the subconscious message sent by some poor communication skills, that we inadvertently put out into our relationships. I liked the practical examples.
