    Activity
    Telling stories is more than just a folksy way to relate to others. It is a powerful and persuasive vehicle that top leaders use to get their message across with maximum impact and minimum resistance. Logic, reason, and data lead prospects to think about your proposal, delay action, and look for reasons not to take action. Stories push their emotional hot buttons and lead to action. Stories move people.

    This workshop is designed for those who persuade in business. Leaders, sales professionals, and business development people have special needs for stories that can build credibility and trust, introduce their company and product, and create a picture of how their solution can change their prospect’s life. Participants will have a chance to develop and tell their own stories so they can begin moving people immediately.

    Here’s a big takeout from the training with the Persuasion Doctor, David Goldwich: the use of story-telling to drive across your message. "Yeah, I know that already," I thought. But something I always ignored! I had to get to this event to discover the real meaning of how stories can make an impact in what I do. I have realized how much I do this with my daughter to come out with lessons in life. How could I miss applying this in my speeches and presentations? I did not realize how blind I could be! I challenge myself to use story-telling in the next speech as well as in a conversation with a new friend."
    Rob Leonardo, Market, Research Professional

    Inspirational trainer. Straight to the point with useful anecdotes applicable to not only just work but also to life.
