Positive Persuading and Influencing Skills for Pharma Professionals Training Course

Excellent! I did indeed find the course very helpful and inspirational-I felt engaged every minute of the 12-hour course, and never experienced a dull moment. Speaker [was] one of the most skilled and inspirational teachers I have come across during my career. The depth of his knowledge is outstanding, as is his ability to read people and situations. The material he presented, coupled with his pleasant and engaging manner of speaking, made this course truly enjoyable.
