Executive PersuasionSM Seminar
No two audiences or situations are alike. While most business communication needs are fairly routine, some involve touchy areas or skeptical audiences. Sometimes, situations can be particularly difficult and require extra finesse and expertise to deal with hostile people or constituents.
A follow-on to the Executive Presentations seminar, our Executive Persuasion seminar is a two-day program that will teach you how to expand and master advanced communication strategies, audience interaction and Q&A skills, and deal with tougher communication challenges.
You will learn how to:
- Master persuasion strategies,
- Win support from your detractors and other skeptics,
- Field tough questions competently and effectively,
- Present your ideas with diplomacy and authority,
- Target your objective through outcome-based thinking,
- Discover the secrets to thinking on your feet,
- Choose the right content for maximum impact,
- Handle rapid-fire questioning and hostile audiences, and
- Take control under adverse circumstances.
