I think reading, "How To Win Friends and Influence People " from Dale Carnegie helps.
Took me years to understand soft skills are as much or more important than technical skills.
(Fixed book's name)
- spb 11y agoIt's "How to Win Friends and Influence People", and it's one of Paul Graham's recommended books (see http://www.paulgraham.com/startupfaq.html http://www.paulgraham.com/startupfaq.html ), along with the Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. There's also "7 Habits of Highly Effective People", which is often recommended in the same breath.
- fsniper 11y agoShoot, I wrote it correctly at first, and after checking for the authors correct name with google, I screwed and put it wrongly. That search is still open and the text is correct there. Actually, I don't know how I managed this screw up.
- beat 11y agoI did a lightning talk a while back called "7 Habits of Highly Effective DevOps", adapting the habits and the organization of them to doing DevOps well.
