    Communication Skills that Build Winning Relationships - DVD

    One of the biggest mistakes we make each day at work and in our homes is to underestimate the power of communication.

This training program shows us how our daily communication skills can dramatically propel us to new levels of success.

Each category is explored in detail to help advance your understanding of how to create effective communication.

    You'll Learn To:

    • Realize that people communicate for two different reasons
    • Reverse destructive self-talk and shape yourself-esteem

    • Guide yourself away from distorted thinking, and generalizing

    Career Skills for the New Economy Seminar

    Complete Package

    This seminar is about creating success for oneself in the new economy. It offers you best practices that come directly from the real strategies of real people who are really succeeding on their own terms. These practices are among the most important findings of ongoing workplace-interview research conducted by RainmakerThinking since the mid 1990's.

    The underlying assumption of Career Skills for the New Economy is that, in the new economy, individuals will have to be extremely good at fending for themselves if they are to survive and succeed. The most successful people will position themselves as free agents and sell their skills and abilities on the open market. Even those who work for the same employer for years on end will have to take responsibility for their own success and security.

    Seminar Includes:

    • Complete Leader's Guide to Career Skills for the New Economy (100 pp)
