What This Course Is About

Overview

In sales, if we understood everyone's personality style, we would know just what to say and how to say it. This module gives you that understanding — starting with your own style, then moving outward to the people you sell to.

You'll examine introvert and extrovert characteristics and how to tailor your approach to each, identify personality types using the Merrill-Reid/Wilson social styles model, and flex your selling style for better engagement. You'll also analyse the communication preferences of different personality types — including what to avoid — and adapt Gartner's Challenger profile for virtual working environments.

For a more comprehensive learning experience, this course is also available as part of the Sales Mindset & Emotional Intelligence: Foundations for Long-Term Success and Essential Sales Skills: Enabling Effective Conversations bundles.
