People School (Science Of People)- Vanessa Van Edwards

How many of these statements sound like you?

• You have great ideas, but have trouble getting them adopted. (And the typical elevator pitch makes your skin crawl!)
• You know you’re incredibly talented, but dread asking for a raise, raising your rates or negotiating for what you know you deserve.
• You have trouble saying no — to events that drain you, to social obligations and to toxic people.
• You are often under-appreciated for your hard work because you don’t always know how to showcase your strengths.
• You want a strong network with high quality contacts without having to go to a networking event every single night of the week (or be a smarmy salesman).
• You want to have influence without being inauthentic.
• You’ve already achieved a certain degree of success, but you know you can do much more. Now you’re ready for the next level, but aren’t sure what steps to take next. (This doesn’t mean you aren’t busy! In fact, your to do list is jam packed, but your 5 year plan is worryingly ambiguous.)

If these statements sound like you, I want to help.

Here’s the problem: Most of us have not been given all the tools we need to succeed.

We learned technical skills and job skills in school, but were barely given any training in people skills. No matter how talented you are, you cannot succeed if you can’t interview effectively, negotiate your worth, or be indispensable on a team.

I want you to be recognized for your talents. I want to get your ideas heard. I want you to be paid what you deserve. To do this, I have created the ultimate people skills training.

People School will teach you all the soft skills you were never taught in school.

My goal is to give you the missing tools you can use for the rest of your life to help you achieve your mission, up your impact and share your ideas with the world.
