Seminar overview

Learn how to improve your pitch mindset. This seminar will be a mixture of neuroscience theory, designed to help understand the impact of a negative/ positive belief system in relation to winning new clients and the differences when defending a pitch with an existing client, and the explanation and demonstration of some practical skills to affect a positive pitch outcome amongst your teams.

You will learn about neuroplasticity and how to affect more positive reactions during and beyond the pitch process. We will cover the psychological dos and don’ts of the pitch mindset and learn many practical outputs to remove any lingering negative thoughts that might hinder the pitch outcome.
