With Isabel Page & Lisa Francis-Jennings
Client communication – making the sale with Theory U By popular request of our segmentation workshop participants, Lisa Francis-Jennings, an expert in sales education, will once again be joining us for this extended session. Lisa will be sharing invaluable analytic tools to understand the psychology of selling and assist you to optimize your opportunity for success during the sales meeting, while being totally present in the interest of your prospective client. We will be sharing invaluable tools to:
• Understand how Theory U goes beyond other popular adaptive leadership models such as appreciative inquiry, social inquiry and the Michigan model of leadership,
• In sales, understand how non-verbal interaction can engage your prospect,
• Practice mining and meeting objection to gain commitment,
• Practice the sales meeting,
• Compare and contract B2B selling with B2C selling, and
• Reinforce the buying decision while you Close the Sale.
We will, of course, develop a personal action plan.

Looking forward to welcoming you on 27 March!

This experience, together with her role in executive coaching and organisational development for diverse public and private global organisations such as Fidelity Investments, Spacelabs, Xing, the European Central Bank, the European Investment Bank, the EU Court of Justice and Henri Tudor, has convinced Isabel of the need for deep change in the practice of leadership and management. Introduced to Otto Scharmer’s work at MIT through the director of Centro Ecológico, Akumal during a voluntary consulting partnership in Mexico, Isabel has been engaged since 2010 in virtual learning with Otto through the Presencing Institute and personally in Paris and Boston. She teaches this work to students and professionals in the context of the Social Enterprise Course, part of the Certificate of Sustainability delivered by the University of Luxembourg.

Bring one ingredient or a small dish to share with everyone and have good talks with great people! The salad lunch is an informal way to get together and get to know each other better. It’s also a fun metaphor of collaboration: each ingredient brought by each person tastes better when mixed up together.
Amenez un ingrédient ou un petit plat à partager avec tous et menez de bonnes conversations avec des gens exceptionnels! Ce déjeuner est une manière informelle de se rassembler et d’apprendre à se connaître. C’est également une métaphore de la collaboration: chaque ingrédient amené et ajouté à la salade a meilleur goût lorsqu’il est mélangé aux autres.
