With my background in Business, Publishing, Academia and Consulting,

My Associates and I teach Influence skills to:

MANAGERS AND SUPERVISORS –
who must motivate subordinates and get their projects supported by key decision makers;

TRAINING, DATA PROCESSING, LEGAL, ACCOUNTING and other technical professionals who must gain credibility and support from peers and work in multi-discipline teams

SALES PEOPLE AND SALES MANAGERS, looking to sharpen their competitive edge

The universal challenge we face today is that however talented or knowledgeable you are, unless you can influence someone to use your ideas or talents, you’ll have only limited success.

Why am I an “expert” on Influence?

From my early years in Canada selling encyclopedias and cosmetics door to door, to my many positions with advertising agencies in New York, I’ve always been fascinated with the process of selling, influencing and persuading.

Combining my “real world” experience with academic discipline, I created
“Secrets of Influence™” . I think I’ve always been an Influence Expert.

Now, more than ever, Influence Skills are THE key variable for success
in the competitive workplace today.

We have several ways you can master these skills efficiently
