I am in my early 30s, somehow recently completed a doctoral program, and still lack some advanced and even basic social skills. I am looking at a career change within my own field but I'm worried my lack of social skills will hamper my ability find a job or succeed in a new job.

Looking for recommendations for books (available in audio format strongly preferred), web series, podcasts, etc. that help adults with ADHD addresses social skills, especially in the professional arena.

"How to Win Friends and Influence People" changed my life when I listened to it (Audible) at 17. Very good at teaching conversational techniques and social strategies. The pdf is also online for free

I was going to recommend How to Win Friends and Influence People. Too.. Lol. It is very insightful and can be easily applied to modern situations.

How to win friends is a classic. I really, really like 'How to be yourself' by ellen hendriksen. She has a podcast if you want to see if you like her 'way'. the savvy psychologist.

Not what you're looking for?
