Top Secret Information from Policy Studies Alum Now Working for the Government Back in the 60s, the CIA bought thousands of copies of the Dale Carnegie book to give to interrogators. Modern interrogation strategy is based off the book. Many times, people now share a positive feeling about their interrogator due to Dale Carnegie

Dale Carnegie Presentations Three TA's present how they use DC to fix a problem. Two Groups will be called on to state what DC principle the TA used. First group to stand and give the correct DC principle wins 1 competition point for their group. If neither group knows the correct DC principle, another randomly selected group will be called on. Do not raise your hand.

Dale Carnegie Principles Don't criticize, condemn or complain. Give honest and sincere appreciation. Arouse the other person an eager want. Become genuinely interested in other people. Remember that a man's name is to him the sweetest and most important sound in any language. Be a good listener. Encourage others to talk about themselves. Talk in the terms of the other man’s interest. Make the other person feel important and do it sincerely. Avoid arguments. Never tell someone they are wrong If you're wrong, admit it quickly and emphatically. Begin in a friendly way. Start with questions the other person will answer yes to. Let the other person do the talking. Let the other person feel the idea is his/hers. Try honestly to see things from the other person's point of view. Sympathize with the other person. Appeal to noble motives. Dramatize your ideas. Throw down a challenge. Begin with praise and honest appreciation. Call attention to other people's mistakes indirectly. Talk about your own mistakes first. Ask questions instead of giving direct orders. Let the other person save face. Praise every improvement. Give them a fine reputation to live up to Encourage them by making their faults seem easy to correct. Make the other person happy about doing what you suggest.
