Introduction
Do You already influence other people in more ways than you may realise?Every time you enter into a conversation, be it with a colleague, a customer or a loved one, you are communicating your own thoughts to those listening. You are essentially selling your point of view to them so that they will understand and accept the idea. In business, increasing your influencing skills to get your idea across successfully could mean increased sales, a raise or a promotion for you.
Through a series of games and exercises this interactive day will explore the science and psychology behind persuasion and raise your ability to increase your influence on those around you in an ethical way.
In addition by the end of this course you will also be able to recognise the persuasion and influencing styles of others and you will have the skills to defuse them.
