The Power of Seduction in Business

Monday, March 11, 2013 from 5:00 PM7:30 PM

DNA is joining with The Professional Women’s Network (PWN) to share with you the ultimate networking presentation: “The Power of Seduction in Business” on Mar 11th from 5-7:30pm.

The Power of Seduction in Business is about playfulness and charm used in the corporate world to gain powerful results.  In a world that is packed with clutter and noise, where 28-56% of employees want to quit their jobs according to Mercer’s survey, how can we use play and charm to motivate and reciprocate?  How can we activate the target audience to give us what we want while leaving them completely satisfied and wanting more?  How can we lure them to engage while waking up the desire in them for our product, service or anything else we offer?  Or in other words – how can we effectively seduce them in business?

In this presentation Chen Lizra will guide you to:

·         Discover the top steps for activating the target audience to give you what you want

·         Learn how to leave them completely satisfied and wanting more

·         Use play and charm to drive revenues up

·         Learn how to keep the maybe alive

·         Charm others to give you what you want

·         Learn the formula of seduction that got me a TED talk
