Whether selling, managing, negotiating, planning,
collaborating, pitching, instructing-or on your knees with a marriage
proposal-the secret of success is based on connecting with other people. Now
that connection is infinitely easier to make through Nicholas Boothman’s
program of rapport by design.
How to Make People Like You In 90 Seconds or Less
is the work of a master of Neuro-Linguistic Programming
whose career is teaching corporations and groups the secrets of successful
face-to-face communication. Aimed at establishing rapport-that stage between
meeting and communicating-How to Make People Like You focuses on the concept of
synchrony.
It shows how to synchronize attitude, synchronizebody
language, and synchronize voice tone so that you instantly and imperceptibly
become someone the other person likes. Reinforcing these easy-to-learn skills
is knowing how to read the other person’s sensory
preferences-most of us are visual, some are kinesthetic, and
a minority are auditory.
So when you say “I see what you mean” to a visual person,
you’re really speaking his language. Along the way the book covers attitude,
nervousness, words that open a conversation and words that shut it down,
compliments, eye cues, the magic of opposites
attracting, and more. It’s how to make the best of the most
important 90 seconds in any relationship, business or personal.
