Influencing people - How to get involved

Some weeks ago I gave a talk in the office about How to influence people.
My experience in this topic comes mostly from three books: How to win friends and Influence people by Dale Carnegie, The 7 habits of highly effective people by Stephen R. Covey and the Holy Bible by God.
If you already read the Dale Carnegie's book, you will see that the topics for the deck came from there, but while talking I was browsing the three book ideas on this subject.

I'll not describe the deck here as each slide deserves a whole blog post. Some day I'll write more about it.

So now is good time to share some experience: The application A normal old java web application: Java 1.4, Struts 1.1, EJB 2.1, JDBC to persist the data and the anemic design (VO+BO+DAO) but I will talk about in another post... Page Object Pattern To map the web page's components inside the test code I used the page object pattern. This patterns helped me to eliminate duplicated code to access web-page's components.
