How Astute Is Your ConnectAbility in 2010?
In 2010 your ability to engage and influence others, often without authority will be far more valuable than ever before. To be successful in elevating yourself, your team, and your organization above the market noise in the upcoming recovery, your ConnectAbility will be critical. That "connectability" is driven by 8 key attributes which allow you to build stronger relationships with your customers and colleagues. Particularly in a low-trust environment where emotional intelligence is a powerful asset.
Join co-authors David Nour and David Ryback as they discuss these eight key attributes featured in their upcoming book, ConnectAbility (McGraw-Hill, 2010), on Wednesday, Jan. 6th, 2010 at Noon Eastern (9:00 AM Pacific).
