Persuasive and Influential Leadership DVD presentation by Greg Schinkel
Have you experienced a situation where you think you have been clear in communicating what you want and need, only to be disappointed and frustrated when others do not buy-in enthusiastically? Even the most thought-out, logical arguments might create unexpected resistance.
That’s exactly why Greg Schinkel of Unique Training and Development presents an intriguing look into the connection between how you think and how you communicate. This presentation was originally produced as a cable television special and is now available in a one-hour DVD.
The presentation is based on the science of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) which studies the link between how you think and how you communicate.

- Achieve greater results in less time and with less resistance.
- Help others adapt to change more easily.

- How to position information so that people think of it as their idea and are more committed.
- Why logic often fails to persuade and how to position information in a way that others can accept both logically and emotionally.
- Why people are naturally programmed to resist change because it causes a disruption to habits – and how to get them to buy-in more readily.
- Three main ways people process information and how to identify and adapt to their dominant processing style.
- How to adapt to people who speak much faster than you do, or who speak much slower than you do.
- The power of stories—how to craft your key messages into powerful stories that help people relate to your message on a personal level.
- Using email more effectively to build rapport electronically.
- Using specific words that are proven to create greater commitment by others to do what you want.
