Very nice post. A few recommendations of books that I found useful to read in this way:

  • Never Eat Alone (Keith Ferrazzi)
  • Pitch Anything (Oren Klaff)
  • The Charisma Myth (Olivia Fox Cabane)
  • The Flinch (Julien Smith)
  • The Trusted Advisor (David H Maister)

I will second The Charisma Myth and The Flinch. I have mixed feelings about Never Eat Alone, but if you live in a large city/on a college campus, Ferrazzi's advice is likely worth reading.
