Sold Out NEW! Strategic Persuasion & Talent Acquisition

Presented in partnership with the Wharton School


Wharton School

 

June 21–24 (Four-Day Program)
1.5 CEUs or 15 recertification hours

 

In today’s fast-paced business environment, you must consistently update your professional competencies. This program exposes you to contemporary and emerging perspectives in management today. This four-day seminar will be divided into two parts. The first two days will be dedicated to strategic persuasion and the art and science of selling ideas. The second two days will address the issue of talent acquisition.

 

You will begin with an intensive, personalized, down-to-earth session that provides critical tools to sell your ideas at work. Wharton professor Mario Moussa will take an “inside-out” approach to help you recognize which persuasion styles come most naturally and enable you to understand the steps you must take to gain influence, credibility and confidence in your organizations.

 

In the second part of this program, we will consider the problem of talent acquisition in the context of uncertainty from business demands. In an environment where business and competitive conditions change constantly, the idea of “planning” for the future is a challenge. We consider solutions to this challenge that consider explicitly the uncertainty in business needs, incorporating alternative arrangements like scenario planning that help to address anticipate those factors that are difficult, if not impossible, to forecast accurately.
