Ethics play a significant role in my business

I recently completed my training, and it was an incredible experience. Gaining insights into the science of human psychology and learning how to apply it ethically was the highlight for me. Ethics play a significant role in my business, so this aspect truly resonated. Patrick van der Burght is an exceptional trainer. I initially met him through a referral group, where he would often share invaluable tips, particularly about hearing “yes” more often. I highly recommend this training to anyone looking to enhance their understanding and improve their communication skills.

Well delivered, insightful, practical and engaging

I have finished the Ethical Influence Practitioners Program this week. The 8-week course facilitated by Patrick van der Burght was well delivered, insightful, practical and engaging. I liked that I was learning with others and we could share and discuss our experiences throughout the course. The program was very accessible and Patrick was really helpful making it relevant to my business coaching practice.

Shifts in my thinking and choice of language

Patrick’s Ethical Influencer Practitioner Course is exceptional! Over 8 weeks I have learned and easily been able to implement the many subtle as well as substantially impactful shifts in my thinking and choice of language as a result of understanding the behavioural science behind persuasion. The opportunity to learn and to practice with the others in the course was a great learning method. It is so rewarding to hear “yes” more often – and all within our own grasp! Loved it Patrick!!!

This was the first time ever I had someone sign up after one session

I have been working with Patrick for a few weeks now and have completed my first session out of a eight-week course in persuasion and influence. This week I received a submission form from my website from an international client from the United States. We got on a zoom session and discussed the products and services we provide which aligned with what he was looking for. I used the skills l have learnt from Patrick with numerous zoom sessions and one lesson of his Ethical Influence Practitioner Certification course, and I close the deal with the client asking to send them the service agreement for them to sign.

This was the first time ever I had someone sign up after one session, there is no doubt the skills I am gaining from being part of the Ethical Influence Practitioner course that Patrick is teaching is helping with me grow my business.

Thank you, Patrick, I highly recommend everyone to do Patrick’s Ethical Influence Practitioner course if you are serious about growing your business and building better relationships with new and existing customers.

Patrick delivered a most insightful, very well-prepared and thoughtful course

Today I completed the Principles of Persuasion course delivered by Patrick van der Burght, and I couldn’t be more happier for myself, my business and my clients 😀

Patrick delivered a most insightful, very well-prepared and thoughtful course, the Principles of Persuasion, from the Cialdini Institute. The course is perfect for business owners, BDMs, and executives wanting to ethically persuade their teams and audience. Patrick is such a master at delivering and engaging every participant to bring out the very best in everyone.

There were so many light bulb moments for me regarding how I can better market my business on our website, social media, and other touchpoints. Plus, there were many aspects of the course that I could pass on to my clients to help improve their businesses.

Many thanks, Patrick; you’re a true gentleman and a master facilitator of the course.

I highly recommend you contact Patrick and get on the next course pronto. You don’t want to miss out on becoming more persuasive and making massive improvements in your business and your life.
