Persuasion and Influencing Skills

The Persuasive Communicator™ is a practical, interactive 1-day skills program to help you influence and persuade others more effectively.

The new skills are easy to learn and immediately applicable to real-life work challenges.

The Program equips participants with skills and a reliable tool for communicating more powerfully and persuasively in any type of business or social situation. It is based on Persona’s Social Styles and Trust Models, which have been validated over 20 years and are at the core of many of the most effective communication skills training programs.

  • Results-focused – The emphasis is on acquiring immediately usable skills, not on learning theory.
  • Profiling Tool – Participants learn how to profile anyone they engage with and how to adapt their own communication style for maximum impact.
