One topic that just doesn’t seem to get enough attention, even from some of the best Ninja’s, is the potential value of understanding learning modalities. Knowing how a person learns best enables you to share ideas and information with them in a way that will make most sense to them, and result in establishing a deeper connection for you both. This is truly a fascinating topic with striking implications for building relationships, and Matt and Garrett are excited to share it all with you today.
They begin by explaining the three learning modalities in order of prevalence, how books can be designed to appeal to these modalities, and how to determine the dominant modality in another person through questioning. Our hosts then engage in a thorough examination of ways to deepen your relationship with others once you know their dominant modality, and also how to ensure that all of your processes incorporate all three modalities in order to connect with the largest audience possible. Once again going far beyond the realm of real estate, Matt and Garrett share information and advice here today that will, of course, improve your business, but more importantly, effectively deepen the relationships you have with your people overall.
