Having people skills are learned skills. In order to successfully work with other people it involves practice. You should start by working in teams, maybe even performing team building activities. Try not to always think about yourself and put other people first sometimes. Putting others first maybe a rewarding experience.

Start by learning active listening techniques--not just the words you say but the intention behind the words--to understand another person's perspective. That would be a great beginning.

I improve my people skills by listening more than I speak. When you take the time to listen to other people, you get a better chance to learn about them and in turn, you improve your people skills.
