How do you go from a social wallflower to a confident friend, speaker, coworker, boss?

The writing is conversational, easy to understand, and empathetic. The author starts out as that social wallflower and works his way and your way to becoming confident in all social situations. It's sort of going through kindergarten to graduating from college with simple social steps and practice. If you can relate to the author, read it.
