Course Description
THE POWER OF PERSUASION
Every manager needs the power of persuasion each and every day. It is an art and a science and can be used in all situations, by all managers.
Persuasion is a life skill and life is one long series of influencing. It’s a contact sport and rules apply. Knowing the rules can be a huge advantage. It is easy to succumb to and is too valuable to take for granted. There isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t need or use persuasion.
Yet most of us have left a room having lost an argument that we felt we should have won.
Why? It’s mainly because we don’t always use the tools of persuasion at our disposal, or we over rely on the ones we are good at – whether they fit the situation or not.
This masterclass will reintroduce you to some of the tools and tactics of persuasion that might enhance your professional practice and help you to persuade people in your direction.
We all need to continually develop our Persuasive Repertoire.
The good news is that persuasion is a skill that can be learned. And as with most skills, it’s one that has to be developed.
