Becoming More Likeable

09Oct06

by Glenn

The Prometheus Institute has an article by Justin Hartfield on increasing your likeability (in the office and the world). The five tips may seem simple, but there’s real truth to them.

The example of closed-off IT workers who don’t show any personality is perfect. At best they come off as boring, making you indifferent to them. At worst they come off as elitist and snobby.

But the guy who takes a risk and shows who he really is (because he’s secure enough in himself to do it) — people like and respect him for it.

Of course, if you’re looking for more influence with others, it never hurts to give the old classic another reading.

Great post Glenn. Sometimes it’s hard to show your true self to people but you’re right in the end you stand to gain more.

Sorry for the drunken Bitchout on Sunday.
