Power, Influence, and Persuasion
- Skilled negotiators deploy power, influence, and persuasion (PIP) techniques daily.
These techniques are powerful, and science based. They do not require coercion, intimidation or hierarchical authority. They simply require strategic deployment. Once deployed on the unsuspecting target, the brain is triggered, and a quick “yes” is procured. That quick yes is a missed opportunity for MORE.
This PIP session will be built around a mutually beneficial mindset. We do not support manipulation. We support creating MORE together. More confidence. More trust. More opportunity. More value.
Learning objectives include the development and delivery of tools on how to deploy PIP strategically. These tools can defend against unethical manipulators, while also paving the path to creating MORE internally, or externally.
