Top Dog: Impress and Influence Everyone You Meet [Paperback]

Get the results you want and come out as the Top Dog in every conversation

Fancy being the Top Dog in all your dealings? Fed up of feeling like the underdog? So many of us regularly lose in conversations before weve even opened our mouths. Often without realising it, we dont see ourselves as a peer of the other person. And we transmit this in what we do and say (Ill fit round you. I know youre really busy.) The other person picks up on this. And, without doing a thing, theyre suddenly in charge!

Top Dog will teach you how to lead in all your interactions, so you can get more of what you want, more often.

Together, Andy Bounds and Richard Ruttle are experts at helping people achieve more from their conversations with others. Their techniques work in every type of interactionconversations, socialising, dating, interviews, sales, marketing, and networking. Basically, anytime you want to impress and persuade others.
