About Soft Skills Master Class Webinars

1. Influential Communications – June 1, 2020: Communication is all about producing a result. We are saying something so that something changes in the world: we are trying to get our audience to think, do or feel something different. Communication is designed to create some change in the world around us. Communication that does this well, which is crafted and delivered properly is influential, and communication that does not produce any result is simply noise. What can you do to make your presentations, emails video conferences and other communication more influential and powerful?

2. Coaching the Gap for Performance – June 3, 2020 As leaders and managers we are responsible for helping our subordinates close the gap between where they are today and where we need them to be. The story of every employee’s growth is measured in a straight forward process of seeing where we are now, where we need to be and what we are going to do to get there. In this webinar we look at a simple, yet powerful, coaching process that allows managers and leaders to coach and close the gap.

3. Storytelling – June 8, 2020: Stories are the most effective way of putting information in context. Telling stories are how we teach and learn at all stages of our lives and as such is one of the most fundamental skills of a good speaker. In this webinar we look at the best storytellers, those people from all walks of life who can take information and bring it alive by giving it context and color. From comedians to scientists and from politicians to movie stars, we will look at how to bring our data alive with stories that captivate our audience.

4. Questioning Skills for Sales – June 10, 2020: The questions a sales person asks can uncover needs, clarify objections, deepen understanding, build trust and demonstrate expertise. Being good at asking questions (and knowing what to do with the answers) is a fundamental skill for anyone in sales or service. This webinar will look at how to ask questions, follow up and deepen, to quickly build rapport and get to the heart of your clients’ needs.
