Why is it that people are so unwilling or unable to ask for what they want?
How many times during the day — in a sales call, conducting a presentation, leading a meeting, running a project — is it vital for you to ask for something that you want in order to achieve your goals? Yet many of us sabotage ourselves through bad communications habits that act as roadblocks to achieving our goals.
The Asking Formula™ is an uncomplicated easy-to-repeat formula — six straightforward, adaptable steps — to achieve the most compelling, confident and effective way to ask for what you want — every time –regardless of the situation or audience.
Asking is a simple skill, but there is no exaggerating its benefit. The Asking Formula leads to more confident communications, better influence, and a heightened professional image. It drives productivity and increases leadership effectiveness. The Asking Formula™ teaches you to achieve your goals by effectively and persuasively asking for what you want…and getting it.
