EP 109: How to Be a Samurai Listener with Cash Nickerson


Listen Later

Soft Skills have become the new hard skills, yet we have to seek out education in these skills. In an increasingly tech-driven world, soft skills are even more necessary.

President of PDS Tech and multiple author and martial artist Cash Nickerson shares how to become a more confident and effective negotiator, listener, speaker, and leader using the way of the Samurai.

The martial arts skills of the Samurai revolve around politeness, self-control, and honesty. By using these traits as business strategies, you will develop an especially powerful tool for dealing with the subtle attacks we often face from colleagues, clients, and others competing for control, eager to succeed at our expense. We discuss specific pitfalls and specially designed exercises to improve all of your interpersonal interactions.

Cash Nickerson draws upon more than thirty years of experience in human resources, the workforce, and his training in martial arts to offer expert instruction to help anyone eager to be more successful.
