Selling is the fuel that drives our business growth. It's both an art and a science.

On the art side, it requires:

• finesse
• being nuanced
• empathy
• deep listening skills

On the science side, it requires:

• method
• rigor
• knowledge
• subject matter expertise
• business acumen

So how do you find the perfect balance between the two to achieve your business's sales goals?

Using methods from my latest book, The Leadership Conversation, we’ll explore how to close more business by having the right conversation.

Learn how to uncover your customers' unmet needs, how to reframe a conversation, and move them to action to ultimately change minds, change hearts, and change the conversation.
