When a Shy Farm Boy Changed How the World Leads
What if the secret to extraordinary influence wasn't charisma, authority, or even talent-but something far simpler? A century ago, a Missouri farm boy who struggled with crippling shyness discovered a truth that would reshape how millions approach leadership. Dale Carnegie's insights, born from his own painful journey to overcome social anxiety, sparked a movement that has reached over 400 Fortune 500 companies and touched countless lives. Warren Buffett keeps his Carnegie training certificate as one of his most prized possessions, calling it more valuable than his college degree.
