I can’t ignore that in his book “Where Have All the Leaders Gone?”, Lee Iacocca described that the book How to Win Friends & Influence People By Dale Carnegie bring big influence on him. He also mentioned that he has taken class from Dale Carnegie since age 23. I think everyone should read this book.

"Ever since I took the Dale Carnegie course when I was twenty-five, I've kept his book How to Win Friends and Influence People on the shelf. I still have my original copy, and it's pretty tattered. I must have referred to it hundreds of times in my life. Do you know what Dale Carnegie's first rule was? "If you want to gather honey, don't kick over the beehive." That's pure common sense - something we are often lacking these days. Dale Carnegie also had some good advice being a leader, and he made a point of saying that it applied to presidents and kings as well as to ordinary businesspeople. Although he wrote How to Win Friends and Influence People more than seventy years ago, Carnegie's principles are just as relevant today."
