Leads | 25

Good Morning: It's a good day because it's good business.

What does it take to develop a pleasing personality? A whole book was written on this subject, How To Win Friends And Influence People, by Dale Carnegie. This course and book were very popular 50 years ago. It was much too brief and the public speaking part of it was also way too brief. When learning to speak publicly you need much more than just a 2 minute practice speech. There is a lot of advise out there telling you how to do this. If you really establish this as one of your objectives it will take practice. This practice will begin in your mind. You will have to subject every action and things you say to a personal self imposed monitor. It will not be easy. The best rule to use would be the application of the golden rule. Ask yourself, Would I like this if it were happening to me? If you are already in a leadership position you must have proper communication skills keenly developed. One of the most important skills would be to learn to administer correction in the proper manner. Break your correction into three parts. First, your correction must not be in public, it must be privately administered. The objective of correction is just that, correction, not humiliation.

The following rule I had burned into my mind years ago.

1. When administering correction always start on a positive vein, build the person up, do not tear them down.

2. Administer the correction. Be positive but be compassionate and control your cool.

3. End on a positive note. Remember, plus, minus, plus. That’s your framework for giving any kind of correction. Use it and keep it private.

I believe the rule above will do more to develop a pleasing personality than anything else. Along with this rule is patience. It is imperative that you apply patience. Easily said, but doing is another subject. Sometimes rules are so simple that they become forgotten and overlooked. Do not forget this one.

If you are reading this it is an indication to me that you are looking for a better way of life. It’s Good Business may be the gateway that you are looking for. Listen carefully to Tom Prendergast CEO of It’s Good Business as he tells you about buying customers instead of buying leads. Don’t fall for the old MLM system of buying their very expensive leads when you could be buying viable active happy customers for less than it will cost you the old MLM way. Don’t go for the withering vines of the old MLM down-lines. Their biggest success is in developing failures. Don’t go that way. Check this out carefully, call me and ask questions. If I don’t answer that means I may not hear it, but you can also get hold of me by skyping me. In this short space I can’t possibly tell you all about it. Learn about it by attending one of our weekly meeting, instructions will be given by Tom Prendergast. Just click here and listen.
