I feel you are on the right track. Early in my life, I was definitely not interested in people. Time spent in the perdorming arts, usually filled with high charisma types, changed that a little. And I picked up a lot of basic people skills. Later, sales directly, as well as pre-sales and related work led to qualification. Those who do that well are high value. Cost of sales can go nuts without solid qualification. And there it was. A primary motivation to better understand people. Some 20 years of that, all manner of companies, departments, leaders and I do often have a genuine interest in other people. Charisma came up and improved as those skills and interests did.
