Trang 3Gerard works as a Senior
Sales Executive at Leonia Inc Frank Smith is Gerard’s Regional Manager at Leonia
Inc
Trang 4• Gerard has been recently
offered a position in one
of Leonia’s overseas offices in China for 2 years
• However, Gerard is not
very sure he should take
up this offer due to various personal reasons.
Trang 5• He has two children who
study in high school and are well settled and happy in their current school and among friends
• Also, Gerard knows that his
working wife would not be too happy to leave her job
to move abroad to live in an unknown culture.
Trang 6• Frank’s boss has given
Frank the responsibility of convincing Gerard of
taking up the position in China.
• Let us look at a
conversation between Frank and Gerard with regard to this situation.
Trang 7Hi Gerard! How’s work going?
Work’s going great Frank,
but you must have heard
about the position they
offered to me in one of
their offices in China
Trang 8Sure, it would feel good to discuss
the situation with someone I
can’t broach the subject at home
before I myself have a clear idea
about what I want to do
Trang 9So, I heard that you have been offered a position as Area Manager
Yes, that’s right
Trang 10So, why are you thinking twice about such a great offer? You know it would take you at least another five years to get to that position in this office This place is just so saturated in terms of
opportunities to grow
I know that but I have certain personal issues that are making
me confused about this
What issues?
Trang 11It’s just that my kids are in high
school and are well-settled here in
their current school They have a nice
and close group of friends I do not
want to move them to a new school
especially at such an important
juncture of their school days
They will soon be pursuing their graduation in college I do not want them to face the hassles of adjusting and settling in a new school in an alien
culture
I see; I can understand that
Trang 12That’s not all My wife works as a
Senior Technical Writer at Howard
Inc She hopes to be promoted to the
position of Team Lead this year She
has really worked hard for this
promotion I just cannot ask her to
give it all up to move to China
That’s a real shame but you do have
a point there Your kids and wife won’t be happy about moving to China at this juncture in their happy
and settled lives
Trang 13Hey! I have an idea Why don’t you speak to the Management and let them know that these are the issues that you have and you can take up this offer but only on
certain conditions
Now, you can understand my confusion I am
so tense; I just can’t make up my
mind
Trang 15I am sure they would They are really hard pressed upon finding someone from the head office here to fit the role of Area Manager in their
Chinese office
Do you think they would agree to it?
They need someone who can really take
up the challenge
to develop the market and clients in that area They know they have chosen the best man when they chose you
Trang 16True! Moreover, it would also help you get into a leadership role where you would be handling a team of your own It is a golden opportunity and one that I think you should not
miss
Thanks Frank I too am looking forward to getting into such
a role It would
be such a great move for my career
You would not get a chance to get into a leadership role
so easily in this office You know that, right?
Trang 17Oh yes! I know that There are so
many people competing for such
roles in this office I think I should
speak to the Management openly
about my issues and also suggest the
plausible solution that you gave
Sure, you should I would also personally speak to them and convince them All the same, be ready to go to take up this offer and move to China After all it is just for
two years
After that, they have promised that they will move you back here Think about the global
market experience that you will get in this position It is
an offer too good to be true
Trang 18You are most welcome anytime! Go for it!
Yes Frank, you are absolutely right
Why didn’t I think of all this before? I
could definitely move temporarily for
two years to China and then come
back while my family can stay here
during that period
My career would get a fresh new boost and their lives would also not get affected I think it is a great idea Thanks for talking to me Frank I just couldn’t think like
you
Trang 19You have seen from the
conversation between Frank and
Gerard how Frank persuades
Gerard to take up the offer in the
China office
Frank persuades Gerard to move from his confused thoughts to thinking very clear thoughts of taking up the offer This is the power of persuasion.
Trang 20Persuasion is crucial for
success in every walk of life

action either tem porarily or

ur
request

Trang 24The Art of Persuasion
Persuasion is an art; you can get
better and better with it.
If you feel that you don’t have an innate talent for persuading
others, don’t be disappointed
because these skills can be honed and developed with the proper
training and practice
People who always speak good
things may feel that they are good persuaders, but that is not always the case Persuasion is all about
understanding what you want and what the other person wants, and then coming up with a win-win
scenario.
Trang 25The Art of Persuasion
Persuasion happens everywhere – it’s omnipresent You may have to persuade people for anything – right from the deadlines of a project to which person will do what chores at home
In the real world, it is sometimes difficult to ascertain whether your persuasion skills are good or bad You may think that you are a good persuader, but in reality, it may be just the opposite
Even before you persuade, you will have to know what can people
be persuaded for

Trang 30How to Persuade Others?
It is important that you should create a good impression of yourself among others in order to be able to persuade them The World forms its opinion of us largely from the opinion we have of ourselves
The following are a few ways through which you can create a good impression:
• Don’t wear a disguise
• Don’t knock the other party
• Learn to Communicate Effectively
• Don’t try to be perfect
• Get people talking about themselves
• Don’t tease and don’t be sarcastic
Let us look at each in detail.
Trang 31Don’t Wear a Disguise
• Don’t wear a disguise
Don’t wear a disguise:
People are much smarter than you realize The conscious mind may not be smart enough to analyze and see through the disguise that people wear, but our subconscious mind does identify the fakeness and disguise that people put on
Trang 32Don’t Knock the Other Party
• Don’t knock the other party
Don’t knock the other party:
Never try to humiliate others if you want to make a good impression Instead, boost your own image Not only do people dislike negative talk, but you are also setting a negative environment to persuade
Trang 33Learn to Communicate Effectively
• Learn to Communicate Effectively
Learn to Communicate Effectively:
One thing good persuaders have in common is skill in using words Learn to communicate openly, honestly and passionately to persuade people
Trang 34Don’t Try to be Perfect
• Don’t try to be perfect
Don’t try to be perfect:
No one can fascinate every minute When you try to be perfect, you appear to be fake and shallow People will not believe you and will not be able to trust you
Trang 35Get People Talking about Themselves
• Get people talking about themselves
Get people talking about themselves:
If you want to persuade others, then show a genuine interest in other people’s opinions and views If you can stimulate others to talk, you will acquire a reputation as a good conversationalist as well as a good
person and will have greater persuasion power
Trang 36Don’t Tease and Don’t be Sarcastic
• Don’t tease and don’t be sarcastic
Don’t tease and don’t be sarcastic:
Teasing and sarcastic remarks are both aimed at the self esteem of others Do not tease or pass sarcastic comments as they threaten the self-esteem of the other person and make you less likable This will make it more difficult for you to be able to persuade the other person
Trang 37One of the key traits of a successful person in professional
as well as personal front is one who can persuade people Persuading people helps you to lead the people to your way of thinking and helps to prevent unnecessary conflicts and resentments There is a very strong linear relationship between success and persuasion
Role of Persuasion in Success
Trang 38Persuasion and Change of Attitude
Cognitive Change: Such a
change in attitude takes place when a person receives new information from others
or media
Affective Change: Such a change
in attitude takes place through a direct experience with the
attitude object
Behavioral Change: Such a change
in attitude takes place when a person is forced to behave in a way
different than normal
There are three main changes of attitude that take place such as follows:
Trang 39Use Persuasion to Change Attitudes of Others
The only way you will be able to persuade others is when you
learn to control and change the attitudes of other people
When you change the attitude of other people, their actions
and hence their behavior will automatically come under your
control When a person’s attitude become favorable towards
you, they are more likely to comply with your wishes and agree
with your opinions and ideas
Trang 40Use Persuasion to Change Attitudes of Others
Following are some of the key points to keep in mind in order to change the
attitudes of other people:
We have to adopt the attitude we want others
to express.
Speak out with confidence and grit.
People react and respond
in a like manner to the
attitude and action
expressed by you.
Watch your posture at all times.
Trang 41Use Persuasion to Change Attitudes of Others
Following are some of the key points to keep in mind in order to change the
attitudes of other people:
Remember to be enthusiastic because enthusiasm is contagious and spreads from one person to another and so does indifference and lack of enthusiasm.
Begin today to develop an enthusiastic, confident attitude and manner.
Confidence breeds
confidence If we believe
in our self, and act as if
we believe in our self,
others will believe is us.
Hold your head up and display a
positive body language at all
times.
