I finally got around to finishing the book I received from Don Gabor at the PASS Summit, How To Start A Conversation And Make Friends. The book is a great read and I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for some extra help with their communication skills.
I attended Don’s seminar at the PASS Summit and was impressed with the effectiveness of his simple approach to remembering names. I am dreadful at remembering names but have been practicing with Don’s techniques for the past few weeks and have had moderate success. And it always seems that around the holidays I end up meeting a lot of new people so having these techniques at remembering names is very useful.
I added this book to my Professional Development library as well. You can find additional reference books listed there. As always, if you know of a book you feel I should list just drop me an email with the name of the book and I will do my very best to read it.
Hi Tom,
I appreciate you recommending my book, How to Start a Conversation and Make Friends in your recent blog–and for adding it to your Professional Development library. I guarantee that if you keep working at remembering names, by the time PASS 2010 rolls around next November, you’ll have it down pat!
Thanks again,
Don
