The Conversation Series
The sales skills nobody taught you that change every professional conversation
A three-part workshop series for Central Exchange members. Each session stands on its own but builds toward a complete framework for having conversations that actually move things forward, whether you're growing a business, advancing your career, or trying to get a good idea off the ground.
Session 3: Handle the No
Pushback is part of every professional conversation and most people either cave or go quiet when they hit it. This session covers how to stay in the conversation when someone objects, hesitates, or says they need to think about it. We'll talk about how to hear what's really behind a no, how to respond without being pushy, and how to keep a good conversation from dying in the follow-up. The goal is to leave with a few tools you can use the next time a conversation stalls.

She created the Coach and Compete framework, a structured approach to building real sales skills through competition and coaching, and presented it at the ATD International Core 4 Conference.
