Professional Confidence & Assertiveness

Being technically competent is not enough to ensure success as a Chiropractor. You also need to believe in your own abilities, be sure that you can deal with any situation, and be able to communicate with a patient confidently and assertively, no matter what.

This seminar teaches you the skill of professional confidence and assertiveness. It shows you that, even when you are stressed, frustrated or lacking in knowledge, you can still convey the best, most confident version of you that patients will like, trust, listen to and want to see again. By understanding and harnessing the power of the mind, you will discover how you can achieve greater patient outcomes, increase referrals and make yourself feel happier, calmer and more confident!

In this seminar, you will hear the latest ideas and research from neuro-science to help change how you think about yourself and your abilities. You will discover how the quality of your first interaction with a new patient can determine your success or failure with them. It will help you to identify where your personal and professional confidence levels are and show you effective ways to enhance them. The seminar will demonstrate how to increase your chances of getting what you want in the long-term and how you can speak confidently about anything from fees to treatment plans, even when you might not have an exact diagnosis at that very moment. It will help you recognise what limiting beliefs might be holding you back from being the best Chiropractor you can be and show you how to transform them. (You can also use the techniques on your patients who have limiting beliefs!) This seminar is, ultimately, about teaching you ways to ensure success in your life, business and practice.
