SSM Guest Talks: “The Art of Persuasion” by Prof. Mohsin Kazmi

Persuasion is both art and science and it is an important tool to inspire, drive and encourage people around you.

The key components of this workshop revolve around the famous saying of Sun Tzu in his book – The Art of War: “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle”.

Objectives: Self-Awareness – Learn and explore yourself , Credibility – Map skills needed to influence, Emotional Intelligence – Understand human behaviour, Impact – Master the techniques of persuasive communication.
