Valid and true.

Likeability is important (Cialdini. INFLUENCE).

Anyone that says it is not is likely in the role they aspired for (within their organization) or doesn't play politics (good luck getting promoted). I believe, as did Professor Steven B. Sample (R.I.P.) that we must pick the hill we're willing to die on (Sample. THE CONTRARIAN'S GUIDE TO LEADERSHIP). Sometimes that is likeability..

Thank you for your time.
