      It depends on where you think your gaps are, but some of the soft skills of communication are discussed in these books that I've learned a bit from each: It's Not All About Me by Robin Dreeke an FBI Social Engineering expert, How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie, Crucial Conversations by Patterson et. al. Not to say you should change your techniques to be "convincing" or salesman-like, which some of these books seem like, but you may learn some of what you do today that can be altered to help with communication.

      Is it just me or is this just a hidden advertisement for the book "It's Not All About "Me": The Top Ten Techniques for Building Quick Rapport with Anyone" by Robin Dreke [1]?

      The book is mentioned (and linked) several times in the article and in articles the article itself cites as sources (and links to).
