One of the biggies is how women manage the male ego. A woman needs to know how to encourage a man to improve himself in a way which doesn't make him feel diminished. I think a really important one is to not simply attack a guy for something he does wrong, but offer him encouragement on how to do a better job. Most guys, at the back of their minds, know when they are coming up short. Complimenting one another is a big thing which can help make a more harmonious relationship as well. When I get a genuine compliment, it really lifts my spirits and drive, and I think a lot of people don't really get that. Dale Carnegie techniques do have some value, you know. Men want a woman who won't rub in the fact that she is more successful in her career than he is in his. Rather, a woman who admires what he does, finds out what he wants to do and helps him achieve his goals..
