Talking to Humans

The book “Talking to Humans - Success starts with understanding your customers” would seem to be aimed at either entrepreneurs or salespeople. But it is a valuable teaching tool for engineers like you because your employer needs you to be a great communicator as well as a talented engineer. Within your job, the more you can think, act, and communicate like an entrepreneur, the more success you will have. This book can help you recognize and acquire the out-of-the-box skills you need.
