Carefully Working out
Persuasive Argumentation

Convincing arguments make you an effective communicator
and a successful negotiator.

The best method to feel confident about negotiations, speeches, interviews and the like is being armed with solid arguments.
Working out convincing arguments means eliminating inconsistencies and contradiction. Elaborating an argumentation strategy and being aware of possible objections is hard work.

There is always a lot at stake in negotiations, presentations and other kinds of public appearances. How can you «pick up» your audience, negotiating partners or interlocutors so as to arouse their interest and motivate them to follow and listen to you? Do you have any good examples, figures or comparisons to underpin and illustrate your points? With what kind of objections do have to reckon? How can you smartly counter attacks without offending the other?

Walk on as safe grounds as you can with solid coaching
by your side, and get your message across.

Preparing your arguments Coming up with a thought-out line of arguments can be a tricky task. The danger is not to see the woods for the trees. Therefore, different perspectives ought to be assumed, not just one's own. A view from «outside», an external specialist's questions and input are very valuable in situations like these. » Media training / interview training Put William Tell's arrow in yor speech You're quite new in Switzerland and want to impress your colleagues or your interviewer by underpinning your arguments with examples and comparisons relating to Swiss history and culture.
