I agree with so many things in this book (so uncanny !)He also gives you ways on how to improve your style, image and even productivity with very useful checklists at the end of the book

Roland Nolen helped me to adopt a new perspective

Roland D. Nolen is urging people in Corporate America to adopt a new perspective on success. "Most people work hard, if you think about it," Nolen says, "When it comes down to it, you have to differentiate yourself. The people with interpersonal skills, communication skills, and team player attitudes are the ones getting ahead." He claims that it is imperative for workers to see their weaknesses and strengths through the eyes of others. Communication is also crucial, claims Nolen. Most employees work very hard and produce good results; however, if they can't communicate their progress to others successfully, these people may never enjoy positive recognition. This has become increasingly more important as technical skills have gained value over interpersonal skills. With such intense emphasis on technology, employees rarely appreciate the significance of communication and perspective. Because of Roland D. Nolen, my career is finally going places!
