SUMMARY:SMB Book Club July 2024 - Persuasion by Arlene Dickinson
DESCRIPTION:Are you looking for a great community of entrepreneurs to enhance your learning and development? \nJoin our monthly book club online via zoom and in person quarterly in Ottawa\, Canada. \n\n\n\nHere’s a little bit about the book: \nAt thirty-one\, Arlene Dickinson found herself stranded. Recently divorced\, she had only a high school diploma\, no savings and no clue how she was going to feed four young children. But just one year later\, she was a partner in Venture Communications. Ten years on\, she was CEO\, poised to grow the business into one of Canada’s largest independently owned marketing firms. Today\, as a co-star of the CBC hit Dragons’ Den\, she is one of the country’s most sought-after female entrepreneurs. The secret of her journey from poverty to the corner office? The art of persuasion. \nBlending her own frank stories with compelling social science\, she explains how to persuade both in the boardroom and in everyday life: the crucial importance of a particular kind of listening; how to get people to buy into your ideas; how to attract followers and deal with naysayers; the art of storytelling; how to turn mistakes to your advantage; and how to seize opportunities where others see only roadblocks. \n\n\n\nRegister at positivist.ca/book-club.
