Dale Carnegie Training Offered
GreaterFindlayInc. is partnering once again with Dale Carnegie Training to bring the nationally recognized Dale Carnegie Course to the Greater Findlay business community! Beginning this fall, you can participate in the course that former Chrysler CEO and President, Lee Iacocca, credited for changing him from a “shrinking violet” to the influential businessman he became. Plus, you won’t have to travel to Columbus, Cleveland or Toledo to do it!
For almost 100 years, Dale Carnegie has been helping people “Win Friends and Influence People”. Founded in 1912, Dale Carnegie Training has evolved from one man's belief in the power of self-improvement to a performance-based training company with offices worldwide. Dale Carnegie Training focuses on giving people in business the opportunity to sharpen their skills and improve their performance in order to build positive, steady, and profitable results.
The Dale Carnegie Course is accredited and graduates of the course can receive 3 undergraduate credit hours. The course is also eligible for Continuing Education Units.
There are a limited number of seats available for this class, so call Dale Carnegie representative Chris Harben (419-618-7488) for more information today!
Sign Up for Weekly E-Tips! Now, you can also sign up for free weekly "e-tips" from Dale Carnegie. By signing up, each week you'll receive an e-mail tip to make you more successful. Each tip will help you improve your motivation, interpersonal skills, presentation abilities, leadership capabilities and more. You'll find they are practical techniques that can be put into use immediately and help you make real improvements in your performance. Get connected to success!
