IT'S SMART TO BE PEOPLESMART
PeopleSmart reveals a powerful plan for making your relationships more productive and rewarding, whether they are with a supervisor and coworkers or a spouse, relatives, and friends by developing your interpersonal intelligence. In this step-by-step guide, the authors show how to develop the eight key skills and abilities of interpersonal intelligence.

These keys are understanding people, explaining oneself clearly and honestly, asserting needs, seeking and giving feedback, influencing others, resolving conflict, being a team player, and shifting gears when relationships are stuck. They present a realistic and doable four-step plan for self-improvement. They explain how to see the current depth of each skill in ourselves, help us learn more about it, give clear guidance for how to develop it, and inspire us to live it every day. Through this five-step, interpersonal fitness plan readers can learn how to:

Listen carefully, observe body language, and interpret behaviors
Communicate clearly and concisely
Speak up about their needs
Motivate others to action
Encourage others to give helpful feedback
Give feedback that is descriptive, helpful, and non-blaming
Negotiate differences and work out a creative resolution to disputes
Coordinate the efforts of team members and build consensus
Change old, ineffective patterns, and more.
