The purpose of this booklet is to help you have a better understanding of people in your environment - friends, relatives, working colleagues etc. With Intuition, you will instantly identify people with the above characteristics through their body language, eye contact and words spoken, and then strategically communicate with them to get your work done with a lasting impact and help them become a better person. You will be able to be a better communicator and will learn how to communicate to the soul of the person, so that your messages are retained and acted upon.
I am always in awe when I listen to our Prime Minister - Shri Narendra Modi. He has indeed mastered in his ability to understand the environment, moods, and communicate accordingly. And his messages are never ignored by the world leaders including Putin and Biden. He is a great communicator and uses his words very judiciously to encourage action among his team, and public at large.
His terms also reflect the same - Atma Nirbhar Bharat - A term with profound meaning - with different context for different categories of people - for entrepreneurs its encouraging entrepreneurship, for state governments and people expecting some help from centre - telling them that you be your own help and stand up.
In this booklet we will also try to identify these characters in the modern world - say Indian Government and Politics and the world leaders.
For example -
