Ironically, going through recruitment on the sorority side can really help with many of those conversation and social cues. I've said it before that I think recruitment training is the first formal conversation training that a lot of young women get.
In absence of that, active practice and awareness of yourself works wonders, but it's a slow process (then again, aren't all forms of self improvement slow processes?) The book "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie is a classic, and a great place to start.
