Are there any resources (on lesswrong or elsewhere) , I can use for improving my social effectiveness and social intelligence ? Its something I’d really like to improve on so I can understand social situations better and perhaps improve the quality of my social interactions.
Where to start depends highly on where you are now. Would you consider yourself socially average? Which culture are you from and what context/situation are you most immediately seeking to optimize? Is this for your occupation? Want more friends?
I’d consider myself a little below average.
Culture :
Anglo-Caribbean (where I am now)
USA- (where I’ll be soon).
Both professional and personal would be great. Not so much making new friends as navigating social situations and being able to ‘read’ people.
