Interesting take on how to build and maintain rapport. The central message of the author is that people like people who are like themselves.

Instant Rapport allows you to forge an immediate bond with anyone, anywhere. Using the Neurolinguistic Therapy of distinguishing between auditory, visual and kinesthetic the author helps you to identify and respond more effectively to people you come in contact with.

I didn't know what to expect when this book was recommended to me. I was pleasantly suprised the knowledge gained from this book is actually very useful in my career. Even in a relationship for that matter. You have to read to find out what I am talking about!
