    I enrolled in the Dale Carnegie Training course, which cost over $1800. Although the cost is somewhat prohibitive, I felt taking the course was necessary in order for me to further my education in leadership and management and to help people better.

    Another benefit for taking the twelve week course is that I will also have experience not many professional Internet Business Coaches have as a resource. With the plithera of so-called business consultants, coaches, and mentors, I will be on a higher level of expertise than many of  them.

    Most Network Marketers know about the book, “How To Win Friends And Influence People” by Dale Carnegie. This book was the flagship that started the Dale Carnegie training course a long time ago. Of course, the principles taught in that book are still relevant today.

    I thought you might find some of these links interesting, so I included them below.

     

    Dale Carnegie Training Course

    The important thing I learned tonight is that I want to change the areas in which I am weak and improve the areas I am good in but could do better. One area I want to improve is my communications skills, as well as my verbal and body language.

    Although I have better than average verbal skills, I feel I need to work on making my point understood clearer and more concise, and my body language needs to be more in agreement with my words. Isn’t this the same area most of us need to improve? That was one of the highlights of the night.

    We covered another subject  in detail as well, recognizing how our lives will be when we learn to deal with the aspects we want to change. For example: being a healthier person, feeling more confident in our abilities and taking control of situations we have the ability to change. I thought about how I would like to be more skilled in public speaking and in living the kind of life that is important to me. Others thought about working with their co-workers better.

    Although my leadership skills are good, there is always room for improvement. I enjoyed that part of the class tonight. It was taught  in a way that we will remember, and in a way that is a positive experience. We learned about listening to each other,  about genuinely caring about the person we are talking to without trying to change the subject to ourselves or intrerrupting the person when they are talking to insert our own thoughts. That was very difficult for some of us, but also very educational.
