Selling Your Ideas: Have More Influence


This month the topic in my Executive Mentoring Group is: Selling Your ideas.

In my own career, as well as in observing the careers of others, I have found that the ability to communicate your ideas well matters a lot to standing out, getting promoted, and getting access to resources.

The good news is that you don’t have to be a gifted speaker to be compelling when you present your ideas. You just need to invest in understanding your platform and audience — and to be prepared.

I created a webinar with lots of practical advice for how anyone can more effectively sell their ideas to get them acted on and have more influence.

You can see a quick preview here:

In this webinar I talked about how to:

  • Build credibility to put yourself in a better position to sell your ideas
  • Be more motivating to tapping into what people should Fear or Desire
  • Be more relevant so you can get people to personally care about your topic
  • Don’t bury the lead – communicate to inspire action
  • The difference between Performing and Presenting – how to truly engage people

    What exactly is an Executive Playbook?

    The Executive Playbook adds practical resources to the webinar. The playbook also contains Q&A and a 4-step action planning guide (along with worksheets) to help you put the ideas into action in your own unique situation.
