Friendly reminder that to get ahead in business and life, the best thing to do is to learn how to make people feel good about themselves. Learn to compliment without the expectations of reciprocation. Learn to listen to people and remember what they say about themselves. Learn to remember important mile stones and point them out. Write shit down. Set calendar invites.
Bonus points if you are physically attractive or in shape. People love it when physically imposing people compliment them, it's a primal instinct.

good advice but don't overdo it. no one likes a kiss ass, no one wants to feel like they're talking to a used car salesman.

i agree and disagree. it depends on how small/large the company is. i got fired from my previous job even when my statistics were above average compared to other associates with my job title.

lmao what, most very successful business people are the exact opposite, they treat everyone like cattle and make them do as much work as legally possible for their profit, laughing while killing their competitors at the same time

Your advice is good if you want to keep a small pizza shop open doing decent work with the same family people for decades, but if you want to "get ahead in business" you have to be an almost non human greedy bastard who just plows through other weak people with no remorse without even flinching

You attract more flies with sugar than shit. If anything, the shitty local pizza shop owner can be a dick because his staff are low skilled disposable employees. Try being a fucking dickhead to a vp with an MBA. He will leave in a heart beat. Treat your Stanford educated AI specialist like an asshole and he will jump ship. Try to make a deal with a vendor by being a bully and they'll drop your contract.

Compliments should be genuine and have a logic reasoning but unless you are a total sperg it's easy to find something real to compliment anyone on.

You haven't been around enough sugar then. Sounds like you've only been around shit.

it's wrong if the only reason you're doing this is to get ahead in life

a truly virtuous man does these things naturally because he cares for and loves his fellow man

These two things are not mutually exclusive. The ultra successful view everyone like cattle, but they flatter them at the right times too.
