    Getting What You Want Overview



    The purpose of this class is to teach technical professionals how to uncover customer needs, how to facilitate customers closing themselves, and some basic psychology lessons that will help along the way.

    The basis for the development of all of the Morgan Group's Course Material is the concept of "The Four Cornerstones of Competence", i.e.:

    1. One must have a core competence. For a technical person/business, this is your profession or your product.

     2. One must be able to sell this competence. There are a lot of engineers painting houses.

     3. One must have someone to sell it to. One must have the skills to develop and maintain business relationships. These skills can be taught, even to engineers.

     4. One must deliver this competence you sold to someone, to his or her expectations. If you do not deliver to your customer’s expectations, you loose their trust, and don’t get a chance again. This is Project Management.

    Unfortunately, no one will come to a course on "Sales, Relationships, and Project Management". Therefore, we have organized the material into two seminars: "Getting What You Want" and "Entrepreneurship and Intrepreneurship". This course focuses on Item 2 above, we offer both courses periodically, the latest schedule is here.

    The material included is taken from a variety of sources, which I have collected over the last 16 years, and have used successfully in building a business, and in developing successful management. Most of the information is collected from published sources. The references can be ordered from our bookstore.
