PEOPLE PEOPLE: LEARNING TO PUT โPEOPLE FIRSTโ AND WHY YOU SHOULD EVEN CARE Are you a โPeopleโ Person? And why does it matter?
In an increasingly competitive business climate, People People provide more tangible value to a company than ever before. Why? As constantly-improving technology dehumanizes relationships and communicationsโallowing โusersโ to hide behind their e-personasโPeople People lift their organizations above the competition by refusing to lose touch with humanity. They prefer a phone call over text. A face-to-face chat over an email. A handshake over a โpokeโ or โnudge.โ Most of todayโs โbestโ companies rely heavily on the human touch to help differentiate their market brand, their public image and their employee culture.In People People best-selling author and speaker Scott Christopher (The Levity Effect) explains the four fundamental attributes (C.A.R.E.โข) of People People, how to become a true Type III People Person, why โPeople Firstโ organizations excel, and how to do it. Sharing a mix of business cases, research data and compelling stories, Scott builds a convincing case that winning organizations are flush with People People and that โnice guysโ really do finish first: People People are healthier, wealthier, happier and live longer than their less-caring cohorts. The simple truth is that being a People Person is less about being good WITH people, as being good TO people.
