Your Influence Quotient: The Essential Business IQ

Date: Wednesday, January 25, 2012 @ 1 pm Eastern 

While your Intelligence Quotient got you into your current position, it is your Influence Quotient that is most relevant to reaching your goals. 

• Have you been looked over for promotion?
• Does your market love your product or service yet nobody buys?
• Are your ideas and programs being accepted and implemented?
• Do you find that others get the credit for many of your ideas or efforts?
• Are your employees or staff giving you the proper respect, attention and support?

How business influence really works is rarely taught in business school. Your Influence Quotient: The Essential Business IQ reveals those unconscious behaviors, ques and messages that make people trust you, believe you…and respond in your favor! (...or not...)

This week on FWW you will learn how to speak with clarity, have your nonverbals be congruent with your message and come across as a confident leader. You will leave this 60-minute event with concrete tools necessary to be perceived the way you would like, so you can be consistently effective with coworkers, superiors, stakeholders and clients.

You will learn:

• Through a handshake, how to identify and influence different personality types
• What gestures allow people to believe and trust you and which do the opposite
• The 30 second method to exude confidence and get your point across every time   
• The 3 key variables essential to your ability to influence others

“Your Influence Quotient: The Essential Business IQ” is taught by internationally-known nonverbal communications expert, Sharon Sayler. 

As a Behavioral Communications Specialist, she literally wrote the book on nonverbal communication, What Your Body Says and How to Master the Message.  The book deals with our body language and what we need to do if we are not getting the results we want.  Her book has been published in 5 languages since its release last year. It is suggested reading in universities around the world.

Ms. Sayler was recently voted one of the 50 Authors You Should Be Reading in 2011.

Date: Wednesday, March 23, 2011 @ 1 pm Eastern

With today's tough economic climate, many organizations are wondering what they can do to remain competitive and "top of mind" in their customers' eyes. One thing is for sure, if you are not experiencing success with your current strategies, it's time for a change and this week's guest may have just the ticket!

This week Eric and Jeff welcome author and speaker Tony Rubleski, president of Mind Capture Group, to share with us his message designed to help people "Capture" more minds (and profits in the process). His second book in the Mind Capture series titled Mind Capture: How You Can Stand Out In The Age of Advertising Deficit Disorder went #1 in three different business categories with Amazon.com and received stunning reviews from a wide range of leaders in marketing, sales, psychology to academia, entrepreneurs and multiple New York Times bestselling authors. In late January of 2011 he released his third book in the series titled, Mind Capture: How to Awaken Your Entrepreneurial Genius in a Time of Great Economic Change! - which will be the topic of today's session.

Among Other Things, You'll Learn...

• What is MIND CAPTURE?
• Who are the BEST salespeople in the world and why?
• Why is creativity so essential in sales?
• Understand the secret to getting people to return your phone calls and e-mail messages.
• What the #1 mistake 99% businesses and organizations are making in their marketing (and should be avoided at ALL costs)!
• Plus, much more...

His work has been featured in various media outlets ranging from Bottom Line Magazine, The Detroit Free Press, the FOX TV network, to CNN Radio, NPR and Entrepreneur Magazine Radio. In 2009, NWA in-flight magazine, World Traveler, featured Mind Capture as the Business Pages selection of the month.

He writes regularly for several magazines, blogs and trade publications on sales,  marketing, and motivation related topics. He’s also a faculty member at the US Chamber of Commerce where he teaches in the target areas of marketing and technology topics for chamber and association executives.  In addition, he’s the editor and creator of A Captured Mind monthly newsletter which also features audio interviews with top authors, business leaders, and other well known newsmakers.

What Some Are Saying About His New Book

“Tony has nailed it with this book. In a busy, fast-paced world, a positive attitude and the right skills to match are essential for success as we head into the new decade. Mind Capture gives you the crucial tools to continue achieving higher and higher levels of success and prosperity-this is a must read!”
-Ivan Misner, NY Times Bestselling author
Founder of BNI and the Referral Institute

“Foundational or personal development training is critical to long-term success in business. If you build a house on a sandy foundation it will eventually fall. Tony is now taking us on a course that shows us how to prepare our foundation. This is the book that makes his other books work even better.”
-Kody Bateman, author “Promptings”
CEO and Founder of SendOutCards

Success You Can Bank On

Date: Wednesday, September 8, 2010 @ 1 pm Eastern

Click here to download the handout for this webinar:  Download Success You Can Bank On Handout 090610

Success – you may not know exactly what it is, but the last few years probably gave you the opportunity to know exactly what it is not!  It is from the unusual vantage point of knowing what didn’t work, who you don’t want to work with and for, how you don’t want to use your time that you cultivate the kind of success in your life you can take to the bank.

In this week’s FWW, Jeff and Eric talk with applied positive psychology expert and television personality, Andrea Goeglein, PhD, about the science of success and how to apply who you are to where you want to go next.

“Every external crisis has an internal solution,” says Andrea.  “The challenge is not what has happened to you but what happened to your confidence in you.”

No matter what you may believe or others have tried to convince you, life success is not a formula to be followed but a journey to be experienced.  It is a constant journey back to the greatest resources you possess – your natural behavior, your natural optimism, and your ability to develop relationships with others.  The journey begins wherever you are now and ends only when you stop taking action.

Join us with Andrea as we discuss what the Fed Chairman learned from positive psychology how you to can behave your way to success.

See a preview of the work Andrew does in the video at the bottom os this post.  This is a clip from the Rachel Ray show in early 2010.

Avoid the 3 Biggest Body Language Mistakes in Under 10 Minutes with Sharon Sayler

Date: Wednesday, July 21, 2010 - 1 pm Eastern

Instantly boost your confidence and influence using irresistible body language. Persuasion, influence and  charisma can be yours with just a few secret moves.

When your body language matches what your mouth is saying…you can achieve the results you want–personally as well as professionally.

Have you ever thought that if you just knew the right words to say you would have no problem inspiring and influencing others, building trust and creating lasting relationships?

If so, you’re not alone. In fact, this is exactly what I used to think. I used to think that if I learned the right lines, everything else would just fall into place. Sadly, not so…

There's a huge mistake you are probably making right now and you don’t even know it.  What's worse is that most people can see you making that mistake and unconsciously recognize it INSTANTLY! This may come as a surprise, but there’s a very good chance that others had already decided to like and trust you or not—BEFORE YOU EVEN OPENED YOUR MOUTH.

Join us as Sharon Sayler, a highly accomplished expert in marketing, presentations, and body language shares secrets from her recently released book What Your Body Says (and how to master the message) (Publisher:  Wiley.  Release:  August 2, 2010).

So Why Tell Stories, rather than just blather on in plain ordinary language?

Access a recording of this webinar by clicking below:

Date:  Wednesday, August 26, 2009 at 1 PM EDT / 10 AM PDT

Annie Hart, master communicator and story teller will be our guest in this edition of FreeWebinarWednesdays.com.

So why should we tell stories rather than speak in plain old ordinary language?  For many reasons.  First of all because telling stories is more fun and we should always have fun when we’re speaking.

Storytelling is the oldest and most powerful form of communication on the planet.  It completely bypasses the rational conscious mind and goes directly into our unconscious, which is the meaning maker of our mind.

This means that stories go in more easily and are more enduring than ordinary communication.  If you want to have power in your message, you really need to tell a story.

Words by themselves are completely boring.  They are just like flat pieces of cardboard with no color on them.  To make a mosaic out of them you need to create colorful images in your reader or listener’s minds eye.

So I went out on the street the other day and as stepped out the door, I smelled the taste of roses in my mind.

Now what does that mean?  Absolutely nothing.  But notice that it created clear images in your mind.  Your brain needed to visualize the step, the door, the smell, the taste and roses, all in one short sentence. This is the same way a great story is created, from inside of the memory banks of your mind.

We need to tell stories for many reasons but the most important of which is that you don’t want to be boring with your words.

Annie will give us more details on her top three reasons to tell stories:

1. tell stories so that people will listen to what you have to say
2. tell stories so that your message will be lasting
3. tell stories so that you don’t bore people with your words

Most of all tell stories because they are the most fun and enjoyable way to communicate on the planet.  That’s it, enough said.  Now go tell a story.
