ABOUT THE Session
Ever had the experience of seeing an outstanding communicator change hearts and minds in front of your eyes? On the spot, they seem to be able to assemble a few choice words and deft sentences that like magic, somehow win over skeptics and get everyone on board.
When you’re in business, communicating your ideas, strategies, and updates to your colleagues, clients or business partners is part of what you do every day, but few of us have learned how to do it expertly.
This class will introduce you to three ingredients of persuasion that you can use in your next meeting, conversation or presentation to inspire others to adopt your point of view and take action.

OPTIONAL learning lab WORKSHOP AVAILABLE
Looking to offer participants a hands-on experience after they take this class? Our Learning Lab add-on class may be just the thing. Learning Labs give participants a chance to bring in their own content and practice key skills for instructor feedback. So that we can offer a personalized experience, we limit the number of attendees who can join each Learning Lab. Each participant will be asked to complete some light “pre-work” beforehand so they come to the session warmed up and ready to go.
