Selling Green: Changing Hearts, Minds, and the Environment Openly

While green may be the hot topic, unless you can 'sell' your Green Initiatives, you won't be in the position to affect your company's impact on global warming. The reality is 'Green' decisions are complex and involve more than being efficient, driving a hybrid or not printing an email. In fact, the conflict of industry demands and being green is more than 'an inconvenient truth': It can be downright mind-boggling. How do you deal with the paradox of being 'Green' when you're an airline, a printer, an exhibit company, a destination location, a manufacturer, and your very products and services have a highly visible carbon footprint.

When you picture the discussions about green initiatives in your organization, do you see yourself winning over the hearts and minds of others? In most cases, it will be necessary to win several engagements to advance you're company's position in a world desiring green. 

Won't you be in a stronger position for your next meeting, the boardroom, or at a press conference, if you have a highly developed persuasive thought process and communication strategy? During the last 20 years, Jeffrey Hansler has perfected a 'change communication' model for selling products, services and ideas. 

In this straight to the point session, master negotiation and persuasion guide Jeffrey Hansler, applies persuasion training to advancing green initiatives within your organization. You will work with three powerful tools to convince your company to:

• Invest upfront for green initiatives (called Additionality)
• Engage in full disclosure regarding green initiatives (transparency)
• Use current assets innovatively to multiply green actions
• Overcome the six top barriers to implementing green ideas in your organization
• Initiate carbon footprint measuring of their products and services in advance of public / government demands

When company executives hear ROI, they grab their wallets because they know ROI generally means spending upfront money - a issue even in a strong economy. If you can't convince them to invest in your ideas and the ultimate payoff, then there will be no ROI. Come to this session and discover what you need to know to be powerfully persuasive: It will put green in your pocket as well as in your organization.

The program includes mind-reading, conversation postulates, and power questioning skills to persuade. Open the .pdf file of the one sheet>>
