Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. Ethical Persuasion is a much in-demand skill that helps you professionally and privately to reach the successes that were always yours to have.

Just remember:
You lose 90% of new knowledge within a week if you don’t use it. This means that without confirming that your understanding of practical application is correct, you will not be able to use this consistently and effectively.

Learning with live training solves these problems.

Persuasion is a much-valued soft skill that businesses have listed in the TOP 5 of in-demand skills for many years now (LinkedinForbes). Employees who are more effective in getting company proposals accepted by their (potential) clients or who can motivate or lead a team more effectively, are clearly more valuable.

From a more immediate persuasion need, students applying for their dream jobs after graduation will be more or less successful in securing job interviews and, of course, the actual job itself if they know how to communicate their value more persuasively. Provided you got the job, then you’d find yourself having to negotiate on your starting wage. Being less effective there could cost you tens- if not hundreds of thousands of dollars over the length of your career.

Patrick van der Burght is passionate about empowering the young generations with this ethical skill that will benefit them from the start of their careers instead of somewhere halfway through. It also makes the (business) world a better place by creating genuine, long-term, respected relationships between parties.
