5. A little charm goes a long way: Why is it that anyone who meets David Beckham never says a bad word about him. You never hear of a chat show host or A-list celebrity bump into Beckham and come away saying how arrogant he is. That’s because David Beckham oozes charm, you never hear him brag about his own performance but always about the team effort and grateful for having had the opportunity to simply be part of it. Charm, charm and more charm! A rare skill in a world that promotes self-promotion and reality TV and something the business world could benefit more from.
