Engage: A practical guide to understanding, influencing and connecting with people (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780994584304)

Many highly skilled professionals find that, after a few years in their industry, their career starts to hit a ceiling. It's not a lack of technical skills that's holding them back but a lack of people skills. These days, just being highly skilled at your job is not enough. You also need to be able to connect with, influence and lead people.

If you're in this situation, this is the book for you. Using his proven ENGAGE Model, Executive Coach Duncan Fish will show you how to:

• prepare mentally for social encounters
• make an awesome first impression
• master the art small talk and never run out of things to say
• project authority and confidence with your body language
• influence using a variety of linguistic techniques
• develop and deepen mutually beneficial relationships
• be a leader who empowers and inspires others.

It's time to stop sitting on the sidelines. It's time to stop missing out on life's opportunities. It's time to Engage.
