From blog posts to high stakes presentations, we all need to know how to persuade, influence, and convince your targeted listener. If you can speak persuasively, you inspire people to take action. We can move the listener from where they are to where you want them to be. With simple techniques, you can learn what these three modes of persuasion are, and how to utilize that knowledge to craft productive meetings, presentations, marketing content, and sales pitches. Even a minuscule shift in your awareness of the three modes of persuasion can create increased confidence, profit growth, and an entirely new level of communication mastery.

The term "servant leader" describes a leader who prioritizes the needs of the team, and this is an essential foundation for all people-managers. The next level of leadership is someone who can perceive, control, and evaluate emotions through Emotional Intelligence. Leaders and managers must combine self-awareness and empathy with the ability to express these items to communicate effectively. This workshop is based on our 55 years of extensive work with leaders who want to go deeper to match their listener's emotional needs in the workplace.

It’s the topic that no one likes to think about or talk about, yet it holds the power to a life of gratitude, success, mindfulness, enthusiasm, and a deep sense of peace. Our death, and the death of those we love is a fact, and our challenge is to figure out how to deal with it. Luckily, it is possible to come to terms with our mortality in a way that profoundly enriches our lives. When we change our relationship with death, we are free from fear, self- pity, and apathy. Learn how to embrace death spurs us forward with a sense of urgency and passion for living this one and only life, both in business and on a personal level.
