Description

ABOUT THE BOOK

Personality refers to an individual’s characteristics -style, behaviour, mindset, attitude, his own unique way to perceive things and seeing the world. Genetic factors, family background, varied culture, environment, current situations play an imperative role in shaping one’s personality. The way you behave with others reflects your personality. An individual with a pleasing personality is always appreciated and respected by all.

Effective communication skills play a crucial role in one’s personality. Communication helps individuals to express themselves in the most convincing way. Your thoughts, feelings and knowledge should bypass on in the most desirable manner and effective communication skills help you in the same.

A person should speak really well to make a mark of his/her own. Remember, no one would take you seriously if you do not master the art of expressing yourself clearly and in the most convincing manner.
