Communicating Like a Leader

7 July 2022 — 10:00am

Broker Leadership Programme session

London RSA Head Office event

Summary

Awarded the title Britain’s Sales Trainer of the Year and described by AstraZeneca’s Global Communication Director as “a genius, whose advice can’t be ignored”, Andy’s insights stem from the fact his mother is blind. This has given him a lifetime’s experience of communicating from someone else’s point of view… so critical when seeking to persuade others.

At the end of this masterclass, you will:

  • Communicate with more impact
  • Impress, influence and inspire more people, more often
  • Get a lot more done, a lot more quickly
  • Be better at influencing – to persuade more people to say "yes"
  • Be better at removing concerns and handling awkward conversations to stop them from saying "no"!
