"E-learning was a totally new experience to me and to be honest I was a bit apprehensive as I do not see myself as very computer literate. However I found the course was very easy to follow and the format made learning a pleasure. It was great to be able to fit the course around my diary and I would recommend it to anyone."

"Pauline Beall Business Manager, Stockton-on-Tees LSCB"

"Paul Hill - Manager of Bradford Safeguarding Children Board"

"We trained 11,000 staff last year for less than £1 each!"

Course Overview

Click Here buy this course

This course is provided by Learning4Business. Having completed this course you should be able to be committed to the use of persuasion and understand why persuasion rather than coercion, is the best way to achieve your desired outcomes.

This course is all about preparing to persuade and influence. This means that you will understand, and become committed to, the use of persuasion within your management role. This will make you more effective in the role and will help you to become perceived as a leader, motivator and influencer by your staff and peer group.

The skills of persuasion and influencing are not easy to master and, as a result, many managers opt for coercion instead. This has a negative and de-motivating effect on those around them, with consequent negative impacts on innovation, effort and production. This course will improve the attitude of managers towards these key skills, and motivate them to study and develop them to everyone's benefit.

The course is divided into 3 sections covering the following areas:

  • adding value to key management roles
  • moving people towards a course of action
  • the role of automatic behaviours
