EDUCATION AT ITS BEST!

Over the last 10 weeks I have been attending evening classes that are helping me in the growth of my business. We started out confirming my target market, my vision and my mission. Since then I've been learning about ways to work with my group of business associates--my network, or my sales team. It's been a growing process. Sometimes it's been frustrating, and other times there have been some "Aha!" moments. All in all, it's been worth the investment. My husband tells me that he has seen how I've changed my approach to things and my wisdom and growth have been very beneficial. I can tell. I've been gaining more referrals in the last couple of weeks, than ever before. It's been exciting! Last week I attended an "extension" of my evening class. It was a half day training on how to recognize behavioral styles in people, and learn how to work with those styles. It was quite an interesting day. I learned first about myself, and then a few more things about my husband, but more so of how to approach those that I want to work with, or who I am already working with. There were four different behavioral styles that we took a good look at: The "How does this benefit me?" person, the "Will this be any fun?!" personality, the "What's the system?" individual, and the "How can I help you?" individual. The class had special labels for each behavior and we learned to recognize these types of people by the way they typically dress, and their hand shake. In learning these skills, I've learned the best way to approach someone who'd want to have fun in the process, or just wants to get down to business. Knowing how others behave can be a rewarding tool in approaching those you want to work with! If you'd be interested in participating in such an event, this same class, A ROOM FULL OF REFERRALS, is being offered in January of 2011. Call me for details, and I'll be sure to make it happen for you!
