Book Description

15 Mar 2012
Only a few special people have that little extra something which defines them as exceptional people. Can these skills be acquired? Yes they can, and here is your opportunity to acquire them. If you read and apply the contents of this book, working through the exercises in each section, you will 'get it', and you will evolve into a person with outstanding people skills. This is a book which looks at personal development from a completely practical angle, setting the reader many exercises in order for them to develop new ways of speaking and relating. 'Get it' explains how we can become much more powerful people by examining our behaviour, our language use, and our appearance. You, the reader, will be involved throughout, developing these as you progress through the book.

To fully achieve our personal goals, we need exceptional communication skills, and we also need a complete knowledge of how others work. We need this because this will not only enable us to bring out the best in others, but will also enable us to deal effectively with manipulators, liars, and bullies. All these characters and the relevant skills needed to handle them with ease are thoroughly studied in this book, along with communication skills which will make you inspiring to everyone you meet and leave you immune to any verbal sabotage. Naturally, you will be highly respected for these skills, and you will rise to the higher end of the social spectrum.

Here is the workbook of contemporary social skills - the workbook everyone has been waiting for. James Taylor has a no-nonsense approach. There is no metaphor here, just a book full of immensely useful exercises and advice, from areas as diverse as pragmatics, philosophy, NLP, hypnosis, counselling, persuasion, grammar and linguistics, seduction, and many other areas of popular psychology. Skilled use of language is crucial to enable us to reach the pinnacle of interpersonal skill, so there is an additional supplementary language study workbook available to offer more practice exercises and discussion.

Product Description

From the Author

A lot of us feel frustrated. We want to have absolute control over our lives, but we constantly find ourselves obliged to serve others. We feel that people don't listen to us at meetings; we feel that we are trying to please people we don't even like. Then we become even more frustrated when discover that the people we tried to please are getting promotion after promotion. What is going on?

The answer is quite simply that these less nice individuals know some things you don't know. They are doing certain things that cause you to be 'nice' to them, and they know how to make you follow their lead - whether you want to or not. If you find out what they are doing, you will be able to copy their ways if you choose. Additionally, simply recognizing their tactics will make you immune to them. You probably won't choose to behave like they do, but you can enjoy using some of their ways in order to get what you want.

We are creatures who judge each other on the basis of what we see and hear, so we need a complete mastery of both the image we project and the language we use. We also need an overview of power-play psychology. Get it: Understand it: Get ahead and its companion workbook offer you this, setting exercises to show you how to apply this knowledge in a way that fits your own unique needs. Both books are workbooks, providing many exercises. The main book provides lots of material on the strategies people use to gain the upper hand, and the companion workbook provides further work on verbal communication power. These books will provide you with skills to get ahead using knowledge and verbal dexterity.
