With Sam Horn on July 21-23, 2023

a personal message from Sam

You’ve heard the saying “It’s nothing personal. It’s just business,” right? 

I disagree. I think everyone wins when we personalize the way we do business.
 

That’s why I’m hosting a LIVE Tongue Fu! certification course at my home in Austin, TX.

On Friday night, I’ll welcome you into my home where we’ll have a catered dinner and a (literal) fireside chat, orientation, and welcome ceremony. 

Saturday, we’ll dive in and you’ll learn the special teaching format I’ve created that makes Tongue Fu! (almost always) THE highest-rated session at every conference at which it’s presented.

Sunday, you’ll learn biz dev best-practices on how to quickly grow a profitable career as a Tongue Fu! instructor/coach. PLUS, you’ll receive a bonus of Talking on Eggshells content. 

Talking on Eggshells just received a glowing review in Publisher Weekly (as did Tongue Fu! 20 years ago) and endorsements from Marie Forleo, Jack Canfield, Lynne Twist, and Whole Foods founder John Mackey, who called it “The course-correct for today’s cancel culture.” 

You’ll quickly discover how becoming certified in this proven, one-of-a-kind, much-needed content can give you a competitive edge for your career and business. 

Bring your walking shoes. My house sits on the Hamilton Greenbelt and you’re welcome to hit the trails at breaks (check out the waterfall a 10 minute walk away.) 

We’re going to have a lot of fun and get a lot done. I look forward to meeting you and to you joining our worldwide community of certified Tongue Fu! trainers.

  • Are they worried they might say something that is taken the wrong way?

  • Are you losing customers because your corporate communications are tone-deaf?

  • Do people feel they’re being blamed for something that is not their fault?

  • Are coworkers feeling stressed or exhausted and productivity is suffering?

  • Do you and your colleagues want to do and say the right thing – but don’t know what that is?

You’ll learn what to say – when you don’t know what to say – and how to handle sensitive situations with civility and proactive diplomacy. 
 
Even better, you’ll learn how to teach these techniques so everyone in your programs knows how to replace reactions that create conflict with responses that create cooperation.
 
Participants in your programs will THANK YOU for these WORDS TO LOSE AND USE that help them deal more proactively with complaints, arguments and bad behavior.
