You can take charge - and you can make a difference! Breakthrough Communication provides easy-to-implement strategies for virtually any business situation, whether it's one-on-one or within a group.

Persuasion is not always manipulation. Persuading others into doing something or buying something can be a good thing. It can be subtle, and it can be completely voluntary on the other person’s behalf. But being able to see what's best in others or look at things from a different perspective requires some practice and knowledge.

Women are at a disadvantage in the workplace, where they deal with unequal pay, sexual harassment, lack of credit for their contributions, and more. And while organizations are looking to address these issues, too many gender-inclusion initiatives focus exclusively on how women should respond, leaving men out of the equation. Such efforts reinforce the perception that these are "women's issues" and that men - often the most powerful stakeholders in an organization - don't need to be involved.
