Interpersonal skills: What should we know?

These are the most important things we need to know about interpersonal skills. Some of my favorite tips from the article:

1. The best tip about having great interpersonal skills (people skills) is to make people feel good, which we do by getting into the other person's shoes (empathy).

2. To deal with people, understand yourself and the others first.

3. 'Give and take' is how our world works (My favorite)
 

4. The other secret of networking: They should also like us.
 Really listen to the other person: They say there is a huge difference between 'I heard you' and 'I agree with you'.
